Toulouse: Sit-In 'Mothers'Rebellion'

A woman holds a placard reading 'Later, I would be...alive'. Extinction Rebellion (XR) Toulouse organized a sit-in of women in one of the most frequented street of Toulouse. Called 'Mothers'Rebellion', the sit-in involved women concerned by climate, change, planet boundaries, the 6th extinction. They want to raise awareness about the climate change and the future of her children, nephews, grand-children, cousins, brothers, etc. as states don't do enough to fight for a living future for all. Red Rebels were also prensents. For them, goverments don't really care about pollution, climate and the 6th extinction to continue the 'business as usal'. The sit-in is one of the events during an european week of protests organised by XR. Toulouse. France. September 16th 2023. (Photo by Alain Pitton/NurPhoto)

    Cyclotourism Tour Against The A69 Highway Toulouse-Castres

    A cyclist wears a vest reading 'Together let's us act for the climate'. The collective 'La Voie Est Libre' (ie 'the way is free') organize a bicycle tour in four days to promote its counter project dubbed 'Une autre Voie' (ie 'another way' ) to the decried A69 highway from Toulouse to Castres. Nearly one hundred cyclists took part to the first stage. The main assocation 'La Voie est Libre' (ie 'The Way is Free'), opponents want the building of the highway to be stopped until all the justice decisions on the content to be given. All expropiations for farmers aren't cleared. Opponents at this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be suffisant for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway will cost EUR512 millions (in 2018 euros without the inflation) for 54 kilometers. More than 100 protected species and 400ha of agricultural fields will be destroyed. Toulouse.

                      Protest Against Gravel Pits And In Support On The 9 People On Hunger Strike Against The A69 Highway

                      A woman carries a canoe with a sail reading 'Soon..No more drinkable water but beautiful highways'. People, activists from XR, soulevements de la terre, Eau secours 31 amid other collectives organized a march in Toulouse to denounce the public works industries as they operate gravel quarries in the phreatic tables of the Ariege and Garonne rivers. They also marched in support of the 9 hunger strikers against the building of the highway A69 between Toulouse and Castres. They stopped in front of the Conseil Regional Occitanie and in front of the Prefecture of Occitanie. After extracting sand and gravel, public works industries put public works waste in the quarries thus polluting the ground water with aluminium, polystyrene, concrete, etc. These phreatic tables are already running low due to the persistent drought in France and they are used for drinking water of Toulouse amid other towns along the Ariege and Garonne river. This water is also used for irrigation. Toulouse. France. September 24th 2023. (Photo by
