Most recently, on Thursday, Tyre Extinguishers members carried out their efforts in Lisbon, Portugal.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cReports coming in of very angry #CarShaggers who are upset they can\u2019t drive their massive tanks around Lisbon. Oh no!\u201d the group said. \u201cWelcome to the fun, Portugal! Now that we\u2019ve had our first action in Lisbon, where\u2019s next?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The statement featured a picture of a booklet that the activists posted in Portuguese on one of the targeted SUVs.<\/p>\n<p>The organization\u2019s website includes a template for brochures that activists can use during operations, as well as instructions for quickly inflating the tires of parked cars. After deflating an SUV\u2019s tires, members of the group reportedly leave a piece of paper detailing the reason for the action, with the headline \u201cATTENTION \u2013 your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/eco-extremists-claim-credit-for-deflating-tyres-of-2000-suvs\/\" title=\"Eco-Extremists Claim Credit for Deflating Tyres of 2,000 SUVs\">gas guzzler kills<\/a>,\u201d on the windshield of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/kevin-durant-draymond-green-blame-golden-state-warriors-for-mishandling-of-2018-argument\/\" title=\"Kevin Durant, Draymond Green Blame Golden State Warriors For Mishandling Of 2018 Argument\">main talking point<\/a> among many of the tire-slashing victims is how ironic it is that the organization that claims to care so much about the environment does not mind wasting paper for their pamphlets and information sheets.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cYou\u2019ll be angry, but don\u2019t take it personally. It\u2019s not you, it\u2019s your car,\u201d the pamphlet said. \u201cWe did this because driving around in urban areas in your massive vehicle has huge consequences for others.\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cWe are people from all walks of life with one aim: To make it impossible to own a huge polluting 4\u00d74 in the world\u2019s urban areas,\u201d the group\u2019s website adds. \u201cWe are defending ourselves against climate change, air pollution and unsafe drivers. We do this with a simple tactic: Deflating the tyres of these massive, unnecessary vehicles, causing inconvenience for their owners.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Tyre Extinguishers admit that their group lacks a hierarchical leadership structure, but they define themselves as a \u201cleaderless, autonomous movement of groups that act independently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the movement, businesses like The DundeeFlators in Scotland, Les Degonfleurs in France, and SUVVersive in Italy now exist solely to deflate people\u2019s tires. Over 10,000 SUVs\u2019 tires have had their air pressure reduced as a result of activists with the Tyre Extinguishers. The group stated that on a single night in November of last year, its members \u201cdisarmed\u201d over 900 SUVs in a synchronized action across numerous locations in the U.S. and Europe.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cThis is the biggest coordinated global action against high-carbon vehicles in history, with many more to come,\u201d the group warned on social media platforms.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Other Headlines:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>LA County Elementary School Parents Protest Pride-Themed Assembly<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Corporate America Capitalizes on LGBT Pride Month<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Biden and Democrats Plan to Seize Control of Your Bank Accounts<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>JP Morgan CEO and Tesla CEO Meet with China, Raising Concerns<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Canadian Defence Minister Warns of Increasing Threats to Critical Infrastructure<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Japan\u2019s Privacy Watchdog Warns Microsoft-Backed Startup OpenAI<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Republican Chairmen Urge Biden Administration to Address Border Crisis<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>YouTube to Stop Removing Content with False Claims Related to COVID-19<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Stay informed!
