The Arrestables is a series of portraits and interviews of Extinction Rebellion activists, all of whom have stepped forward ready to be arrested. Extinction Rebellion is a new British born climate activist movement which aims to push hard for policy changes on the ongoing climate crisis. The human and natural world is facing a serious threat of mass extinction because of climate change and the climate activists wants to push for dramatic and radical policy changes to avoid a possible extinction. One of the tools to do this is peacefull but determined mass civil disobedience where people sign up to be arrested. In April alone more than 1200 protesters were arrested in London when they shut down Central London and many more will come in the struggle for long lasting solutions to the climate emergency.
