The morning commute on Interstate 395 in Washington, D.C., was interrupted twice last month by the climate activist group Declare Emergency. As activists sat across highway lanes blocking traffic, drivers got out of their cars to confront the protesters. “We gotta go to fucking work!” one driver yelled. “We got kids to feed!” Another suggested the activists take their complaints to the White House. When police eventually cuffed and removed the protesters from the scene, the crowd cheered.
