Action Ideas

Want to take action against car culture but don't know what to do?
Anything that you want to do or think you are capable of doing.

That is what direct action is all about. The best actions are those which are full of colour and laughter. People respond best to ideas presented to them in a fun way. The most successful actions fall into these four "categories":

  • The most fun and colourful educational acts which reveal all the problems of car culture - beyond the pollution argument and into habitat destruction, resource extraction and human rights abuse,the loss of community space in our cities etc.- presented in a fun fashion.

  • The most radical (and therefore attention grabbing) actions which confront the hypocrisies in the system or the lies in the advertising and tell the real truth.

  • The locally focussed actions - which link to a real or planned project in your area.
