The mass movement of protests around the world, breaking records in many countries for the largest ever climate demonstrations, calling for action by our leaders. Police then started moving into the crowd and randomly arresting people. But these were not, as described in newspaper reports “climate activists.” Whoever happened to be there at the time – including one of our Citizens’ Voice team – found themselves caught up in an area that had been cordoned off. After most climate activists had left République, it seems that some anarchists fought with police. Here are some clips I took of the peaceful and engaged voices of Paris as COP21 is about to begin. ![]() Stretching from Republique, common citizens joined hands from block to block, to peacefully express their desires for a saner future for our world. Thousands of Parisians and visiting activists found ways to send their message to the world, and urge leaders at the COP21 talks to arrive at a meaningful solutions, without falling foul of the state of emergency imposed by the French government.Īvaaz, a worldwide campaigning community, organized a donation of thousands of shoes, weighing in at 8 tons, and placed at Place de la Republique, to represent the 400,000 pairs of feet that were originally expected to march through Paris. That’s the stuff that gets lots of clicks on news sites, but for those of us on the streets of Paris yesterday, there was a very different experience. The newspapers today are talking about violent protests in Paris, with about a hundred people arrested.
