"I Don't Mind If You Die": Wealthy Donors Freak Out At Climate Defiance Protesters

A group of ten climate activists from Climate Defiance, a youth-led disruptive action organization, disrupted a private fundraiser for Gov. Maura Healey in Nantucket, urging her to halt the construction of new fossil fuel projects across Massachusetts. Similar to Extinction Rebellion's demands, the activists heckled Healey during the event, asking if she would commit to stopping fossil fuel projects. Although Healey didn't directly respond to the question, she spoke about her lawsuit against ExxonMobil for misleading investors about climate change risks. The activists unfurled banners reading "end fossil fuels" and "business as usual is a climate disaster," prompting heated exchanges with fundraiser attendees before leaving peacefully as Nantucket police officers arrived.
