Climate Activists Glue Themselves to Dinosaur Display in Berlin
The activists said that humanity can take its fate into its own hands, unlike the dinosaursTwo environmental activists glued themselves to a dinosaur display at Berlin's Natural History Museum on Sunday to protest what they said was the German government's failure to properly address the threat of climate change.
The women used superglue to attach themselves to poles holding up the skeleton of a large four-legged dinosaur that lived tens of millions of years ago. “Unlike the dinosaurs, we hold our fate in our own hands," protester Caris Connell, 34, said as museum visitors milled around the display."Do we want to go extinct like the dinosaurs, or do we want to survive?”
Fellow activist Solvig Schinkoethe, 42, said that as a mother of four she feared the consequences of the climate crisis.
