From the streets to the sites of industry, this publication shows an unaffected view of the climate protests in Europe between 2018 and 2023.

Photographs by Scott Wiese reveal aspects of what demonstrators experience when called to action: joy and solidarity, violence and rejection, borderline experiences of body and mind. Either ignored or defamed by the majority, environmentalist groups are taking responsibility for a largely inert, clueless, or resigned society that is well aware of the impending consequences of climate change but is doing nothing. Wiese’s images appear alongside text contributions outlining the hope and despair of all those advocating for a sustainable future.
