BLOCKADE STRIKES FOR THE 6th TIME IN TWO DAYS
Grace, 18, has now been arrested after stopping operations at the world’s largest coal port in Newcastle by stealthily climbing to the top of a stacker-reclaimer and gluing their hand to the railing – it’s a crane-like machine that is five stories high, think biggest machine you’ve ever seen. Stacker-reclaimers are used to load coal onto ships for export. Grace glued herself onto the machine and said:
“We are a relentless bunch of people. We will not stop until real action on climate is taken.”
Major export facilities across the continent have been disrupted six times in two days by #BlockadeAustralia
Grace is a conservation student who grew up on a farm on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country (Canberra). Grace works at a bakery, and is concerned about the future of food amidst the climate and ecological crisis, and what the future holds for all life on Earth.
