Ban Private Jets - Action Training
When: February 10th, from 17:30 to 20:30.
Where: Overgrund (Rådhusstræde 13, Copenhagen)
Private jets are the pinnacle of climate, social and economic injustice!
A four-hour private flight emits as much CO2 as the average european does in a year. Private jets are used mostly by the ultra-rich (less than 1% of us). The UN has stated that the richest 1% of the world must reduce their emissions by 97%. Yet the ultra-rich, with their power and influence, continue to fry the planet at our expense.
The system is working against the people, but you can help fix it.
Extinction Rebellion and Scientist Rebellion are doing monthly civil disobedience actions against private jets.
Join us and take the next action training: February 10th at 17h30, at Overgrund (Rådhusstræde 13).
Tip: Overgrund is at your left, as soon as you get into the inner courtyard.
Who are we
As scientists, we have been ringing the alarm bell for decades, publishing countless papers and reports, and talking politely to the media and Danish politicians about the escalating climate and ecological crisis. People have asked the Danish government for urgent and necessary climate action.
Yet, despite their promises, the Danish government is far from being on track to meet their own climate goals, as the latest report from the climate council shows.
Our past efforts have failed, so we are changing tactics.
We are scientists and academics of all backgrounds who believe we should use our privilege to press for urgent climate action through civil disobedience.

Ongoing campaigns
We are currently part of a coalition running a “Ban Private Jets” campaign, also as a way to shine some light into the outrageous greenhouse gas emissions of the richest 1% of the world population.
This is part of the global campaign “Make Them Pay”.
As part of the campaign, we run regular action trainings. See here when the next one is happening.
