'''[[Roger Hallam]]''' has recently been released from a British prison for civil disobedience against the climate change policies of the British Government. He was the master strategist for the April 2019 actions undertaken by Extinction Rebellion that succeeded in bringing the climate emergency to world attention. He is sincere, strategically astute and passionate about how we can turn the climate crisis around, which he believes is possible if we act in a purposeful and concerted way through deeply intentional non violent direct action. He points to the Suffragettes and Martin Luther King as examples but there are numerous others, especially from Gandhi, the Occupy movement, Black Lives Matter, Standing Rock, Arab Spring, among many others. His perspective is very nuanced from a scholar who has studied the nature of social change very deeply. Roger is one of the more thoughtful leaders in the climate movement and he has consistently espoused non violent direct action within a deep understanding of the history of non violent direct action in relation to social change. Roger emphasizes that we are incontrovertibly in Code Red. We are now in the climate tipping point which means escalating ecological turbulence is now unavoidable. He frequently quotes Sir David King who says that if we don’t take action in the next 3 - 4 years, literally hundreds of millions of people, mostly poor and in developing nations, will die. This is one of the prime motivators for both Humanity Rising and the Global Regeneration Corps. Enhanced unity among individuals and organizations involved in climate action is critical or we will not be able to make any measurable difference in a world spinning out of control.

 Editor's note: '''[[Global Regeneration CoLab (GRC)]]''' is the organization actually doing the work.

Jim Garrison, President, Ubiquity University
