WHO WE ARE
Welcome to the home of Scientist Rebellion Turtle Island, representing the United States and Canada. We are a multi-disciplinary group of scientists united by this thought: we understand the breadth and magnitude of the climate crisis and we are damned determined to do something about it.
WHY WE REBEL
The science is clear.
SRTI believes that scientists and scholars should be at the forefront of the climate struggle. Engaging in non-violent direct action, including civil disobedience, is our way of rebellion.
We speak out and disrupt, sounding the alarm to push for climate justice and ensure a better future for generations to come.
We are thinkers. We are whistle-blowers. We are defenders. We will not be quiet.
