The fossil fuel industry is killing us

From August 11-22, XR Norway is gathering hundreds of activists from all over Europe because Norway’s fossil fuel industry is killing us. Knowing the catastrophic consequences, our politicians continue without any emergency plan. We will make it impossible to avoid our cry for help.

XR Norway is planning actions in:

  • Arendalsuka: August 11-13
  • Vestlandet: August 18-19
  • Oslo: August 18-22

The Arendalsuka democracy festival with its 170,000 participants is sponsored by the oil company Equinor and refuses to debate the biggest crisis of our time: phasing out oil and gas in line with existential scientific warnings. If we don’t put the climate and nature crisis at the top of the agenda, no one will.

From August 18-22, we will shut down the oil state of Norway. Hundreds of new oil licenses will be awarded up to 2029 without a phase-out plan after this year’s election. The time has come to take major action against fossil infrastructure and take over Oslo city center. You are needed in any way you can contribute, whether it is to engage in civil disobedience, or take on supporting roles without the risk of arrest, such as holding banners, cooking or contributing with artistic expression and music.

JOIN OPEN MEETINGS AND COURSES

A number of meetings, courses and talks are being arranged ahead of the actions. See info further down and on our event page.
