"Massive Turnout for Extinction Rebellion Protests in London"

Extinction Rebellion's "The Big One" campaign, which began on Friday, has seen thousands of protesters gather in central London to call for more action to tackle the climate crisis. The second day of the campaign coincides with Earth Day, and a "unite for nature rally" is set to take place near the Houses of Parliament. The London Marathon, which takes place on the third day of the campaign, is aiming to reduce its environmental impact, while XR is coordinating with the event's organisers and does not plan to disrupt runners. Wildlife presenter Chris Packham has made a rallying call for "every last person who cares" about the planet to join Extinction Rebellion.
