Ooooh, Dad got the police fine notice for us doing climate civil disobedience in front of Melbourneβs Flinders Street Station on Saturday 9 December 2023. $385 for failure to obey a police direction to move on. We were all on our Brompton bike at the time (and it was raining) .
Are we the first chihuahuas to be arrested? We didnβt spend time in the lockup, they only took Dadβs details to issue the fine.
Weβll do it again because climate policies are still not at the ambition to avoid catastrophic climate change. Dad has read the science and has tried other avenues of change (and we πΎ and chewed over the IPCC Global Warming at 1.5C report)
Dad wrote this blog post on reasons for why we were arrested for climate civil disobedience.
