Extinction Rebellion, an environmental group, held the protest at many locations in central London. The main statement for Extinction Rebellion is to increase the awareness of the climate change issue through fierce actions. 

Prime Minister of British, Boris Johnson, mimicked the environmental group as an organization of out-of-control. According to the confirmation from the National Police Chiefs’ Council, officers including Devon and Cornwall, Kent, Surrey, Surrey, and Hampshire were going to the center of London to deal with these unreasonable protesters 
who fought for the climate change.

Under the section 14 public order, the warning had already been sent out to notify protesters to move their tents from the streets to prevent the arrest. 

Protesters stated various statement to reveal their voice to accuse the improper solution to the climate change from the government. McGee, a former editor of an astronomy journal, refused to cooperate with the police officer. She hoped that her action could make the government pay more attention to this issue. She considered that the current government and Boris Johnson did not propose a valid policy to emphasize the benefit of renewable energy or replace fossil fuels. 

The protesters of Extinction Rebellion are worldwide. A group of protesters danced with the song related to climate change to block the street in Australia. Up to now, nearly 600 protesters had been arrested in London. 

The activists are not yet to end this protest. They are going to prepare the protest like Hong-Kong style to occupy the airport.
