Why Extinction Rebellion should stay off the grass

In their latest stunt, protestors from Extinction Rebellion have dug up the lawn at Trinity College, Cambridge. Presumably they think all publicity is good publicity, but this looks like yet another own goal.
Trinity appears to have been targeted for two reasons, both stupid. One is opposition to the college’s involvement in plans to redevelop farmland in Suffolk.

As it happens, both options sound good to me. But we have a planning system to thrash out these issues, without the need to trash a garden.
The second reason is that Trinity is believed to be the largest Oxbridge investor in oil and gas companies, using the income to educate young people and fund research into, among other things…
