To stay on top of important articles like these, sign up to receive the latest updates from <a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/lsFRj\">TomDispatch.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap\">In August, climate activist and cellist John Mark Rozendaal was arrested and charged with criminal contempt for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/newrepublic.com\/article\/184875\/climate-protest-cellist-citibank-arrest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">playing a few minutes of Bach<\/a>\u00a0outside Citibank\u2019s headquarters in New York City. Rozendaal, 63, was prominent in the \u201cSummer of Heat on Wall Street\u201d campaign that targeted Citibank for its prolific financing of fossil fuel projects. He and a codefendant now face up to seven years of imprisonment if convicted.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile in Atlanta, more than 50 justice and environmental activists are awaiting trial on domestic terrorism and other charges arising from their years-long defense of the city\u2019s South River Forest against the construction of an 85-acre police training center there. They are <a href=\"https:\/\/popularresistance.org\/georgia-drops-money-laundering-charges-in-cop-city-rico-prosecution\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">being prosecuted<\/a> under Georgia\u2019s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) law. Any of them found guilty of \u201cracketeering\u201d would have five to 20 years of imprisonment added to their sentences for the alleged underlying crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Such situations are symptomatic of a grim trend in both the United States and Europe. Nonviolent, nondestructive climate protest is increasingly being subjected to criminal prosecution, while punishments are being ratcheted up to levels befitting violent and far more serious crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Across the Global South, such environmental protests are all too often being met by corporate and state forces with extreme extrajudicial <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globalwitness.org\/en\/campaigns\/environmental-activists\/decade-defiance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">violence<\/a>, especially in Indigenous communities. Here in the Global North, however, the clampdown on protest has largely been through legal action, at least so far. But that might\u2014especially in an America with Donald Trump as its president again\u2014only be a prelude to more violent kinds of suppression as global warming accelerates.<\/p>\n<p>For embattled American climate activists, this trend further raises the stakes of the November 5th election. The crackdowns on climate protest are so far being carried out by state and local governments. But the state abuses described in this article should be considered a preview of what is almost guaranteed to be even worse to come with Donald Trump\u2019s second administration. As recently as October 13th, in fact, Trump insisted that, once back in the White House, he\u2019d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salon.com\/2024\/10\/13\/easily-handled-by-the-military-reveals-plans-to-squash-dissent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">call in the military<\/a> to quash domestic dissent of any sort.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, a Trumpian Congress will likely pass laws gutting federal climate policies and imposing extreme penalties on future climate protestors. Both prospects also <a href=\"https:\/\/yaleclimateconnections.org\/2024\/07\/what-project-2025-would-do-to-climate-policy-in-the-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">feature<\/a> prominently in the Heritage Foundation\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/what-is-project-2025-trump-conservative-blueprint-heritage-foundation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Project 2025<\/a>, produced in part by a gaggle of former Trump officials.

And count on it, he\u2019s almost certain to exploit that act.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gas, Oil, and Cars Over People<\/h4>\n<div id=\"current-issue-block_b71508783628911bfb9b63bbb1680ce0\" class=\"current-issue  float-l-w-2\">\n<h4 class=\"current-issue__title\">\n                    Current Issue<br \/>\n            <\/h4>\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenation.com\/issue\/march-2025-issue\/\" class=\"current-issue__cover\"><br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thenation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/cover0325.jpg\" alt=\"Cover of March 2025 Issue\"\/><br \/>\n    <\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"is-style-dropcap\">Since 2016, 21 states have passed a total of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icnl.org\/usprotestlawtracker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">56 laws<\/a> criminalizing protest or dramatically increasing the penalties for engaging in it. To be sure, John Mark Rozendaal was arrested in New York, a city located in a blue state, but all the states that have adopted new anti-protest laws are governed by Republican-majority legislatures. And the specific activity most frequently targeted for prosecution is protesting the construction or existence of oil and gas pipelines. (Note that all state laws mentioned below are described in detail in a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icnl.org\/usprotestlawtracker\/?location=&amp;status=enacted,enacted_with_improvements&amp;issue=&amp;date=&amp;type=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report<\/a> by the International Center for Not-for-Profit Law, or ICNL.<\/p>\n<p>The state of Alabama, for example, can now punish a person who simply enters an area containing \u201ccritical infrastructure,\u201d including such pipelines, with up to a year in jail and a fine of up to $6,000. If you go near a pipeline in Arkansas, you\u2019re at significantly higher risk: imprisonment of up to six years and a $10,000 fine. Impeding access to a pipeline or a pipeline construction site in Mississippi carries a sentence of up to seven years. Do that in North Carolina as a member of a group, and you\u2019ve got even bigger problems. As the ICNL <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icnl.org\/usprotestlawtracker\/?location=&amp;status=enacted,enacted_with_improvements&amp;issue=&amp;date=&amp;type=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reports<\/a>, \u201ca group of people protesting the construction of a fossil fuel pipeline could face more than 15 years in prison and a mandatory $250,000 fine if they impede or impair the construction of a pipeline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many such sentences for protesting are wildly disproportionate to the severity of the act committed. In Florida, trespassing on property that contains pipelines can result in up to five years imprisonment, compared to only 60 days for trespassing just about anywhere else. Enter a pipeline facility in Ohio with the intention of tampering with it in any way and face a potential 10-year sentence. Simply spraying graffiti on an Ohio pipeline installation can carry a six-year sentence, while anyone who \u201cconspires\u201d with the person creating such graffiti could be fined an eye-popping $100,000.<\/p>\n<div id=\"cta-block_3de41abdd93e71fe2909053e277a1371\" class=\"cta float-l-w-2\">\n<p>Many climate marches or demonstrations involve walking or standing in roadways. Politicians have been exploiting the fact that \u201cautomobile supremacy is inscribed in law by every branch of government and at every level of authority\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nyulawreview.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/NYULAWREVIEW-95-2-Shill.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">in the words<\/a> of law professor Gregory Shill) to pass highly punitive measures against street protests with little fear of having them overturned. In effect, the laws privilege fossil-fueled vehicles over the human beings who speak out against them.<\/p>\n<p>In May, the Tennessee legislature passed a law that mandates a prison sentence of 2 to 12 years for protesters convicted of knowingly obstructing roadways. In Florida, groups of 25 or more protesters impeding traffic can be charged with \u201crioting\u201d and face up to 15 years imprisonment. Anyone in Louisiana who does no more than help plan a protest that would impede traffic can be charged with conspiracy or with \u201caiding and abetting,\u201d even if the protest ends up <em>not<\/em> hindering traffic or not occurring at all.<\/p>\n<p>In Iowa, being on the street or sidewalk during a vociferous but nonviolent protest can cost you five years in prison, yet (believe it or not) a driver who runs into you during a protest, causing injury, is immune from civil liability if that driver can convince authorities that he or she had taken \u201cdue care.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Laws that permit drivers to run into or over pedestrians engaged in protest have been passed in four states. Three of those laws hit the books in 2021 in the midst of a 16-month period during which American drivers deliberately rammed into groups of protesters a whopping <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.bostonglobe.com\/news\/nation\/2021\/10\/vehicle-rammings-against-protesters\/tulsa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">139 times<\/a>, according to a <em>Boston Globe<\/em> analysis. Three victims were killed and at least 100 injured. Drivers were criminally charged in fewer than half of the ramming incidents and in only four was a driver actually convicted of a felony. In other words, even as protest is being criminalized, assaulting protesters by car is, in effect, being decriminalized.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Louisiana can file RICO charges against people who, as part of a \u201ctumultuous\u201d demonstration, block roads or damage oil or gas pipelines. And protesters beware, since that state\u2019s RICO law carries the possibility of 50 years in prison at hard labor and a $1 million fine.

More than 700 protesters with the Indigenous Environment Network have been <a href=\"https:\/\/walking-water.org\/2021\/09\/05\/update-on-stop-line-3-campaign\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">criminalized<\/a> for their untiring efforts to impede or halt pipeline projects across North America.<\/p>\n<p>If the dozens of state anti-protest laws display many suspicious similarities, that\u2019s no coincidence. In response to pipeline protests, oil and gas companies <a href=\"https:\/\/newrepublic.com\/article\/175488\/atlas-shadowy-global-network-right-wing-think-tanks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">teamed up with<\/a> the American Legislative Exchange Council, which draws up \u201cmodel legislation\u201d for Republicans in statehouses across the country to use as templates for bills that push various corporate and hard-right priorities. Once this genre of legislation was directed toward on-site pipeline protests and passed in state after state, it was also seized upon to criminalize street marches and demonstrations, including those against racist violence, fossil fuels, and other ills\u2014all with \u201ctraffic safety\u201d as a pretext.<\/p>\n<section id=\"popular-block_85b7243e64931112c42551397ed62a67\" class=\"popular-articles\">\n<div class=\"swiper\">\n<p><h2>Popular<\/h2>\n<p>            <span class=\"swipe-msg\"><span class=\"sr-only\">\u201cswipe left below to view more authors\u201d<\/span>Swipe \u2192<\/span>\n        <\/p>\n<ol class=\"popular-articles__list\">\n<li class=\"popular-articles__list-item swiper-slide\">\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"popular-articles__list-item swiper-slide\">\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"popular-articles__list-item swiper-slide\">\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"popular-articles__list-item swiper-slide\">\n<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p>Following the lead of their kindred state legislators, Republicans in Congress have proposed their own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icnl.org\/usprotestlawtracker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">raft of bills<\/a> criminalizing protest. Fortunately, they haven\u2019t succeeded in getting any of them passed\u2014yet. Many of the bills were prompted by campus protests against US-supported genocide in Gaza or over climate policy and against the fossil-fuel industry.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the congressional bills amounted to less-than-serious grandstanding. One, for instance, would have required a person convicted of \u201cunlawful activity\u201d on a university campus at any time since last October 7 to perform six months of \u201ccommunity service\u201d <em>in Gaza<\/em>. But there were also dead-serious bills like the one prescribing a prison sentence of up to 15 years for inhibiting traffic on an interstate highway. Other proposed bills would have withheld federal funding (in one case, even pandemic aid) from states that refused to prosecute people who took part in protests on public roadways.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smashing Human Rights in Europe<\/h4>\n<p class=\"is-style-dropcap\">Punitive measures against climate protest are reaching new extremes in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amnesty.org\/en\/latest\/news\/2024\/07\/europe-sweeping-pattern-of-systematic-attacks-and-restrictions-undermine-peaceful-protest\/?ref=rogerhallam.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Europe<\/a>, too. Since the British Parliament passed harsh new anti-protest laws in 2022, more than 3,000 activists associated with the Just Stop Oil movement have been arrested. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2024\/09\/14\/climate\/uk-climate-protests-policing-laws-prison-intl\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CNN<\/a>, \u201cMost of those arrests have been for planning or carrying out direct actions, including slow marching,\u201d which impedes traffic.<\/p>\n<p>In response to such repression, Michel Forst, the UN special rapporteur on environmental defenders, <a href=\"https:\/\/unece.org\/sites\/default\/files\/2024-02\/UNSR_EnvDefenders_Aarhus_Position_Paper_Civil_Disobedience_EN.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wrote<\/a> that under the Aarhus Convention (a 1998 agreement most European countries have signed but not the United States), \u201cWhether intended or not, any disruptions that [environmental] actions may cause, such as traffic jams or disturbances to normal economic activity, does not remove the protection for the exercise of fundamental rights during such action under international human rights law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In defiance of that principle, the new British laws prescribe a sentence of up to 10 years imprisonment for those convicted of planning protests judged to be a \u201cpublic nuisance\u201d (which often means disrupting traffic). Such prison terms, noted CNN, are comparable to those for aggravated robbery or rape under British law.<\/p>\n<p>When the climate change group <a href=\"https:\/\/rebellion.global\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Extinction Rebellion<\/a> announced an action near The Hague in September 2023, more than 10,000 people of all ages showed up. They\u2019d come to protest the more than $40 billion in subsidies that the Netherlands government gives fossil fuel companies annually. The police blasted the crowd with water cannons, then arrested and hauled away 2,400 protesters, including children.<\/p>\n<p>The group Climate Rights International (CRI) <a href=\"https:\/\/cri.org\/reports\/on-thin-ice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reports<\/a> that \u201csome democratic countries are even taking measures designed to stop peaceful climate protests before they start.\u201d In June 2023, for instance, German police detained an activist before he could even leave his home to join a climate protest. Five months earlier, a Dutch activist was held in custody for two days to keep him from an action by Extinction Rebellion. He ended up being convicted of sedition (yes, sedition!) for encouraging others to attend the protest. None of that sounds like something \u201cdemocratic countries,\u201d as CRI called them, should be doing.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Protest as Necessity<\/h4>\n<p class=\"is-style-dropcap\">People charged with nonviolent protest often invoke the \u201cnecessity defense,\u201d declaring that they committed a minor law violation to stop a far greater crime. Unfortunately, that defense <a href=\"https:\/\/climatedefenseproject.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Political-Necessity-Defense-Jurisdiction-Guide-Updated-July-2019.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">almost never<\/a> succeeds and judges often forbid defendants from even explaining their motives during a trial.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what happened to members of the group Insulate Britain who stood trial this year for a climate protest that disrupted traffic by nonviolently occupying streets and climbing onto overpasses along a major London ring road in 2022. The judge presiding over their trials <a href=\"https:\/\/cri.org\/reports\/on-thin-ice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ordered the defendants<\/a> not to mention climate change in court. Several of the activists defied that order, citing the climate emergency as their motivation, so the judge promptly held them in contempt of court and sent two of them to jail for seven weeks.<\/p>\n<p>One of the protesters cited for contempt, Nick Till, told CRI that, while trying to bar him and the others from explaining the purpose of their actions, the judge allowed the prosecutors to depict the defendants as threats to society. \u201cThere\u2019s an attempt to insinuate we\u2019re a \u2018cell,\u2019\u201d Till said, \u201cwhich is language that implies some kind of revolutionary group. They had an expert in counterterrorism testify. They tried to portray us as dangerous extremists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In July, four people who planned the London protests were convicted and sentenced to a draconian four years in prison. A fifth defendant, Roger Hallam, one of the most prominent British climate activists, was sentenced to five years even though, bizarrely enough, he was neither a planner of the protest nor a participant. He was charged instead for <a href=\"https:\/\/rogerhallam.com\/5-years-in-prison\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a speech he gave<\/a> regarding civil disobedience as an effective form of climate action in a Zoom call with that protest\u2019s planners.<\/p>\n<p>In their trial, the five defendants represented themselves. Over the course of four days, with the judge repeatedly trying and failing to silence them, they presented what could be the most extensive and compelling version of the necessity defense ever heard in a courtroom. (Later, in his prison cell, Hallam wrote up an account of the trial. It\u2019s well worth <a href=\"https:\/\/rogerhallam.com\/5-years-in-prison\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reading<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>On both sides of the Atlantic, volleys of laws threatening long-term imprisonment for nonviolent dissent are being put on the books to cow the climate movement into silence. So far, European protesters who dare to resist are getting hit hardest with convictions and sentences. Though also being threatened with increasing penalties under state laws, Americans have somewhat stronger protections under the First Amendment. But how long will dissent continue to enjoy such protections in this country?
