I was not at all involved in any actions or their planning. </p><p>I was there to explain, as I have done hundreds of times before, why we have to peacefully step up and stop the greatest crime in <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/human" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>human</span></a> <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>history</span></a>: the decimation of the lives and livelihoods of billions of people by the continued emission of carbon.</p><p>My sentence is the longest since the Second World War for peaceful <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/CivilDisobedience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CivilDisobedience</span></a>, and the reason is obvious. </p><p>Stopping the burning of <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/fossilfuels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fossilfuels</span></a> at the speed needed involves challenging the most powerful <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/political" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>political</span></a> and <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/corporate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>corporate</span></a> interests. With the rise of a <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> denier to the US presidency, this situation has never been more urgent. </p><p>Support Roger's Work</p><p>Since founding Extinction Rebellion in 2018, I have been the UK's most successful climate campaigner. I set up the largest climate civil disobedience organisation in the Western world. </p><p>At the time of my imprisonment, I was doing vital international networking to bring people together and fundraising for the global resistance movement we need to stop the terror that is being imposed upon us.</p><p>The world is going to go over 2 °C in the next decade.</p><p>Let's be in no doubt about what will happen: appalling suffering and injustice beyond imagination.</p><p>At the same time, precisely because of this dire situation, there is enormous potential to build a <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/global" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>global</span></a> revolutionary <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/movement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>movement</span></a> to create new, revitalised democracies as the <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/alternative" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>alternative</span></a> to the <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> waiting in the wings.

I am at the centre of these efforts.</p><p>I am aiming to raise £50,000 while I’m in prison - and I’m asking for your help.</p><p>Help Reach the £50k Goal</p><p>This is not the time to pretend this money is just for another <a href="https://qoto.org/tags/campaign" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>campaign</span></a>. Those days have gone. Think of what you could give and then double it again. Remember, it won’t be worth much in a decade, will it? Give whatever you can and please share this fundraiser with five friends.</p><p>I may be in prison for a while, but I am committed to spending this time in my cell, supporting movements in any way I can. This is my life.
