The comforting thing about forms of political activism that challenge our way of life, is that their proponents will always fail to be perfect to a greater or lesser extent. I think climate change activists have it particularly tough. So no one should even report on anything they do if it involves emitting carbon in order so to do? I try to focus on what they are trying to do, appreciating that they’ll mostly fail, but think that at least trying is more than most people do. It’s so easy to criticise isn’t it - we’re all guilty of it - I know I am but why not try to be a bit kinder and realistic?
