The symbol was created in 2011 by a London street artist who goes by Goldfrog ESP and seems reluctant to give media interviews.
But in a conversation with Ecohustler, he says he was inspired by the history of symbols. Extinction Rebellion: Le blocage au centre de Paris se poursuit.

Regenerating Gaia: Imagine a Peaceful Rebellion that Regrows Nature. Gaia – the living global ecological system – is collapsing and dying as human industrial growth overruns natural ecosystems and climate.
