Governments are increasingly targeting activists with repressions. Why not follow the science and actually save our climate? This would end climate protests really quickly. There is little explanation except for malice that the combination of criminalizing activists and continuing emissions seems preferable.

Reminder: Posting and liking memes is great, but real change comes from actions. If you are as concerned as we are about climate change, please consider joining or supporting climate activists near you.
how does one find climate activists near me?
If you can't find local advertisements, you can look through social media. Some big ones are fridays for future and the a22 network. For some of them, you can also help remotely. You could also look for some kind of green party or ask some of the larger players whether they know anyone.
If you are involved in science, also take a look at scientist rebellion.
Climate activists generally criminalize themselves, meaning they break existing laws. It doesn't help the popularity of their cause either. I'm not saying there's never a reason to take protesting to the next level, but often these "crimes" are committed by people under 25 who even insurance companies recognize haven't fully developed the concept of consequences for their actions.
