From Greta Thunberg to Guatemala, climate protestors are being treated like
criminals
Nina Lakhani
It has almost become normal to see climate and environmental activists
across the world being arrested and charged with serious crimes from
aggravated trespass and tax evasion to domestic terrorism.
To name just a few recent examples: in British Columbia, more than 1,000
land defenders have been arrested for trying to stop construction of a gas
pipeline through Indigenous Wet’suwet’en territory

as radical lawbreakers. But jailing ordinary people trying to stop the
destruction of the planet – while the industries responsible keep
profiteering and elected officials keep letting them – isn’t normal or
accidental.
To understand what’s going on today, I recently travelled

back to San Miguel Ixtahuacán, a rural community in the western highlands
of Guatemala, where 15 years ago Indigenous-led opposition to a sprawling
Canadian gold and silver mine became one of the earliest documented cases
of a transnational corporation – and its state allies – weaponising the
legal system against environmental defenders.
Patrocinia Mejía, a 63-year-old grandmother, was among scores of community
members slapped with arbitrary criminal charges, which divided and crippled
the social movement. “We were so scared of being captured that we didn’t
hold our meetings any more, and I was too afraid to show my face at
protests,” Mejía (pictured above) told me. Even today, six years since the
mine was closed, the divisions and collective trauma were gut-wrenching to
see.
Experts told me that what happened in San Miguel Ixtahuacán proved to be so
effective that criminalisation spread across Latin America and is now
deployed globally as part of a playbook of tactics to divide communities,
and detract attention away from legitimate debate and protests about
environmental and climate harms. Guatemala was a textbook example of a
draconian crackdown and became a laboratory of sorts, said Jorge Santos,
the director of Udefegua, a Guatemala-based rights group tracking attacks
on defenders.
It’s worth noting that criminalisation is among a gamut of repressive tools
being used against climate and environmental activists, which also includes
online attacks, financial sanctions and even kidnap and assassinations
<https://ablink.email.theguardian.com/ss/c/TBl-lE0k4WbTlFRn6v-lQXxTpTslqnvUsR2ofAkC00srM1ejFEPSX0g_5MWKJM9aqL6WLjS9DRdqp0015qgJpZSvk2LJ8T61WY5ocfXVvsNpe1d1IWv2Qtp82Wp2Bzj6J9QSIySZxUq5022kIAcbXJp5qr86WdfcBlmCrbS1fZZeTB3EUpbDQYLh6O4nZCTIiAo4IJf5_VHniz0mNHmSIZElmvdZUeJRUqHK7el2MIOmhiHjT3lAjCVMYQaBuwIXu2RPfOoWT02geoe5uaecxnX4LURoGqz6nfpO8bzKYX8Wicezc4ZCq6XDkLZvHCUS/3z7/kfS0AjqYRuKNxByBuUjTwA/h80/tUOaVlQHbRkS-76PBaz5jzuPg65tV2Y1YHr33_KH46Y>.
Yet criminalisation stands out as it exposes the barefaced nexus between
corporations and governments. Corporations can hire private security thugs
to intimidate and attack grassroots leaders, but they cannot arrest and
charge them without their political and law enforcement allies.

an ultra-right US group backed by fossil fuel companies. (Similar laws are
spreading across the world). Yet the vast majority of charges were
dismissed, suggesting the mass arrests were about silencing and distracting
protesters – not public safety or national security as was claimed at the
time, according to Claire Glenn, an attorney at the Climate Defense Project
who has represented more than 100 Line 3 protesters.
Over the next few months, we’ll be reporting on the criminalisation of
climate and environmental activists globally; connecting the dots between
these seemingly disparate cases is key to exposing who and what is behind
the crackdown.

The change I made – Lobbying my local politicians
*Down to Earth readers on the eco-friendly changes they made for the planet*
[image: Aerial view of Elizabeth tower which contains Big Ben next to the
Houses of Parliament.]
Dick and Carol Dolan emailed to suggest getting in touch with your local
politicians on green issues big and small.
The Dolans have written to their MP, Thérèse Coffey (who also happens to be
the UK environment secretary), to lobby on “peat-free compost, protecting
peat bogs, repairing peatlands, neonicotinoids, failure to meet promises,
water quality and sewage discharges, bathing water status, heat pumps and
the green homes scheme”.
One other helpful tip? The Dolans say they regularly forward copies of Down
to Earth to friends and family – and “occasionally they read them”.

vaquitas are shy members of the porpoise family, with the smallest range –
only living in the Gulf of California’s northernmost waters. Populations
have become victims of bycatch, getting entangled and drowning in gillnets.
Despite the nets being banned, illegal use continues.
