First, we'll get to know two stories, then after getting to know them, we'll send everyone to a warmer climate!
The setting of the first story is the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, Australia. Here are two activists of the terrorist - sorry, I want to say - radical environmental protection organization called Extinction Rebellion.
He glued himself to the glass cover of Pablo Picasso's Massacre in Korea and displayed a banner reading "Climate Chaos = War and Famine." The police arrested the two perpetrators. According to Extinction Rebellion, the artefact was not damaged during the incident.
The location of our second story is London, and within it the National Gallery. Here, two frenzied activists poured tomato soup on Vincent Van Gogh's world-famous painting Sunflowers. The estimated value of the painting is 72.5 million pounds (more than HUF 36 billion). The two activists were detained by Scotland Yard for intentional damage, according to the gallery, the painting was protected by the glass.

According to the video recorded at the scene, one of them shouted that
"What is worth more? Art or life? Are you more concerned about protecting a painting than human life or the planet?".
Now comes the part of the article about sending to a warmer climate! What the hell do Picasso and Van Gogh or art in general have to do with climate? Is it better now? Will global warming retreat from this?
It says on the climate screen: “What is worth more? Art or life?” Unfortunately, he doesn't realize that life without art is not worth much, and that wasting, destroying, erasing or banning universal culture does not contribute to saving the planet.
If you really want to do something, tie yourself to an LNG ship. Or glue yourself to the gate of some polluting factory in China. Maybe you could also scribble the headquarters of Coca-Cola with big words so that the stuff is no longer in plastic bottles.
Before you get to the Louvre, shouldn't we do something with the coal power plant renaissance?
