Jobs of The Future: What Will Their Future Look Like? | Extinction Rebellion UK

1 year ago 46


What should our children be learning to prepare them for the Jobs of the Future? Certainly, not pumping gas, flying aeroplanes. These are not compatible with a planet that can support life on earth. Does the UK education system teach the skills needed in tomorrow’s world, today? Our children need to prepare for their future careers. Train drivers, foresters, circular design, sustainable farmers, nutritionists - does the Government even have a clear strategy to develop our sustainable industries? We need our government and big business to get real about the peril we all face. The simple, fast way to slow the rate of planetary warming is to RADICALLY reduce emissions immediately and put a halt to new oil & gas extraction. Time has almost entirely run out to address the climate and ecological crisis which is upon us, including the 6th mass species extinction, global pollution, and increasingly rapid climate change. If urgent and radical action isn’t taken, we’re heading towards 4˚C warming, leading to societal collapse and mass loss of life. The younger generation, racially marginalised communities and the Global South are on the front-line. No-one will escape the devastating impacts. If like us you think we all deserve better, join us for the Big One on the 21st April. No glue, No funny stuff - just turn up, be counted and bring a mate! Join us, for a future you choose. #UniteToSurvive #JobsOfTheFuture Extinction Rebellion UK: https://extinctionrebellion.uk/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/xrebellionuk Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/XRebellionUK/ Map of UK XR groups: https://map.extinctionrebellion.uk/ Extinction Rebellion Families: https://linktr.ee/extinction.rebellion.families Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/extinction.rebellion.families/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ExtinctionRebellionFamilies Twitter: https://twitter.com/XRFamilies Help XR mobilise and donate: https://chuffed.org/xr/uk 1.
