Climate Regeneration. New Actors and New Strategies in the Climate Movement
In any case, there are other previous mobilizations related to the possible reversal of climate change, such as the movements of resistance to neoliberalism (Almeida and Pérez Martín, 2023), mobilizations against extractivism (Bebbington and Bury, 2013), environmental conflicts (Cuenca et al., 2022), alternative movements around “good living” and the philosophy of life of indigenous communities (Acosta, 2012). In addition, collective actions and movements claiming the recognition of legal rights over rivers, plants, animals, which will remain in the background in this communication, are having great visibility.
The objective is twofold: 1) to analyze the different strategies, from the most classic mobilizations to civil disobedience, deployed by organizations such as Fridays for Future, Youth Climate Strike, Sunrise Movement, Extinction Rebellion, Scientist Rebellion, Australian Youth Climate Coalition, Gender CC-Women for climate change, Futuro Vegetal, Riposte Alimentaire and Just Stop Oil; and 2) to reconstruct the interpretative frameworks of the aforementioned actors around the diagnosis of the current situation, the Sustainable Development Goals, sustainability and climate change.
