If you believe in social and climate justice, you are already part of Animal Rebellion!

Animal Rebellion Turtle IslandARTI (North America) is a mass volunteer movement that uses methods of nonviolent civil disobedience to transition away from animal farming and industrial fishing to a plant based food system, halt mass extinction and minimize the risk of climate breakdown and social collapse. ARTI stands in solidarity with Extinction Rebellion. ARTI is part of the global Animal Rebellion movement. 

Our Strategy

At the core of Animal Rebellion’s philosophy is nonviolent civil disobedience. We promote civil disobedience and rebellion because we think it is necessary and the times are urgent.

Our Demands

All partners in this ‘movement of movements’ are calling for the same demands on government to bring about the changes we urgently need...

OUR CULTURE

Animal Rebellion Turtle Island has a regenerative culture. We place love, care, respect, honesty and integrity at the core of what we do. We work hard but know how to rest...

Our Strategy

We have woken up to the climate and ecological emergency unfolding around us. We know it is of our making—which means we have the power, and responsibility, to stop it. Every day we know more about how we’ve reached this point. Every day it becomes clearer that animal agriculture and fishing are leading causes of climate breakdown and ecosystem collapse. Billions of land animals and trillions of fishes are killed every year in an unjust and unsustainable food system that destroys rainforest, depletes our oceans, and cannot feed the planet. We know time is running out. That’s why Animal Rebellion Turtle Island is here—to help end these industries now and avert catastrophe.

Our Structure

Animal Rebellion Turtle Island is a mass volunteer movement, and we need thousands of ordinary people to find their courage, get involved, take leadership, make decisions, and build this action together.

As long as people follow our ten principles and values you can take action in the name of Animal Rebellion, without the need for permission. In solidarity with Extinction Rebellion, we operate with the same Self-Organising System (or XR Constitution) processes. We are seeking a balance between being able to act quickly in response to fast-changing situations and being able to integrate the collective wisdom of multiple perspectives when needed.

We are a mass volunteer movement. If you want to get involved in any way, full-time or part-time, at home or on the streets, fill out our volunteer form!
