Fighting Climate Crime - Activists Lock Down Logging Operation
The CLIMATE CRIME message carved into fresh dairy pasture on newly cleared forest land
Early this morning Greenpeace activists took action to stop corporate dairy’s assault on New Zealand forests and the climate.
In the central North Island huge swathes of forest are being cleared to make way for industrial dairy mega farms.
Well before dawn this morning, in the forest near Tokoroa, several activists halted the sharp end of the logging operation by locking themselves to heavy equipment.
Meanwhile, on nearby land recently converted from forest to dairy pasture, another team have used rotary hoes to write CLIMATE CRIME in 5m-high letters into the fresh pasture.
