Klimabevægelsen I DanmarkMar 13
Når medierne gider ikke tale klima - så vi indtager gaderne!📢

Kom med til GRØN WEEKEND!

Den sidste weekend inden valget samles borgere og grønne bevægelser på tværs af landet til store aktioner, tre dage i træk.

Brug en dag eller din weekend på at gøre valget den 24. marts til starten på en grønnere og mere retfærdig fremtid. Det er NU vi har muligheden for at vise politikerne, medierne og vælgerne at vi er mange der står sammen og kræver handling NU.

🌍Fredag den 20. Marts: Dansk Country Overshoot Day
På gaden for en fremtid i balance med de planetære grænser, med aktioner i København, Odense og Aarhus. Og så er Fridays For Future tilbage med strejke foran Christiansborg.

💚Lørdag den 21. marts: Folkets Klimmarch
Vi samler os i mindst fire byer: København, Aarhus, Aalborg og Viborg.

🐷Søndag den 22. marts: Gør valget til et svinevalg!
Vi samles i København for at sende et klart signal: Rent drikkevand, liv i fjordene og gode liv for dyr i landbruget, kræver et opgør med den industrielle svineproduktion. Sammen viser vi at vi ønsker en griseproduktion, vi tåler synet af og et reelt kursskifte for vores fælles fremtids skyld.

Mere info om steder, tidspunkter og fællesafgange på Klimavalg.nu

It’s intended as an attempt to force myself to focus and keep my attention directed toward the real world.

I also plan to restart my own newsletter, so anyone interested can follow along there. You can actually already sign up via my website.

Exercises in attention — Emil Ryge

It’s not like the world seemed simple and peaceful before 2025, but it sure feels like it’s taken a turn for the crazier. It feels as though our constant access to news and information—and an apparent strategy from those in power to "flood the zone" and barrage us with ever more absurd sta

From being spaces meant to foster community and focus on photography, they’ve been reduced to entertainment channels with the sole purpose of keeping us hooked for as long as possible.

As a first step, I’ve given my website an overhaul and plan to spend more time updating it. And in the same vein, I’ve started a visual diary where I post images from my everyday life, both at home and out and about.

Like countless others, I’m currently considering leaving Facebook and Instagram.

First of all, it seems unsustainable to spend time on platforms that not only profit every time I use them, but have also become weapons in a political battle with the American president at the center.

But just as importantly, I can clearly feel how all these online platforms fragment my attention.

Cut the Ties protest — Emil Ryge

I usually bring my 4x5 large format camera to add images to by ongoing series about the climate movement, but as this was not technically a climate protest, I brought my digital camera this time.

It’s been years since I’ve seen this level of violence used against non violent protesters.

Feels appropriate for the times.

Spending too much time pondering what to do and what makes sense at the moment.
