Greenpeace activists in the dock: Experts take ‘the stand’ on climate change

As expert witnesses go, they don’t come any better than Professor James Hansen, one of the world’s leading climate scientists and Director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies. On Wednesday, he was called to give evidence before a UK Court on the threat posed by Kingsnorth coal-fired power station to the world’s climate.

Six Greenpeace activists are being charged with criminal damage after they took action last October, to highlight the threat posed by Kingsnorth.

Activists from the Esperanza, assisted by local land owners, halt the
loading of illegally logged trees onto the 'Harbour Gemini' ship from
the rainforests of Papua New Guinea.

Rainforest timber stopped from leaving Paradise

Armed police have escorted three of our activists off a ship in Papua New Guinea. The activists had stopped the ship, bound for China, from loading illegally logged timber from the Paradise Forest. They remained harnessed to a crane onboard the vessel for more than 55 hours and are now safely back on the Greenpeace ship, Esperanza.

This peaceful direct action highlighted the impact of deforestation on climate change and was supported by many local people who joyously watched from boats, singing and dancing.

Global warming and its effects on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia
feature. Aerial view of the Great Barrier reef off the Whitsunday
Islands. Based on figures from The Australian Bureau of Agricultural
and Resource Economics (ABARE) it is estimated by government, media
and environmental activists that export coal expansion plans in
Queensland would create additional global greenhouse pollution equal
to 125% of AustraliaÕs total current emissions; or the same as the CO2
pollution from 65 average sized coal-fired power stations. Australia
is considered by environmental activists as one of the world's highest
per capita polluters and exports more CO2 than is emitted
domestically. In 2006/7, Australia exported around 243 million tonnes
(Mt), 30% of the world's total coal exports, equal to 656 Mt of CO2.

Great Barrier Reef saved from shale oil exploitation

It's a victory for the Whitsunday Islands and the Great Barrier Reef, with a 20-year moratorium on all new shale oil projects in the region. Led by the Save Our Foreshore group, the success shows just how powerful local, grassroots campaigns can be.
