Climate activists block tracks carrying coal train in Harvard
HARVARD, Mass. — Activists protesting the largest coal-fired plant in New England are blocking train tracks deep in the woods of Harvard early Friday and have set up scaffolding above the tracks.
At least four protesters are refusing to leave the tracks that help move coal to the Merrimack Generating Station in Bow, N.H., but others left on their own, Harvard police told Boston 25 News. They arrived at the site around 10:30 Thursday night and set up scaffolding above the tracks where they camped out. The group appears to be part of the Climate Disobedience Center, which supports “logistical, legal and spiritual resources, on the ground assistance, and advice to climate activists engaged in civil disobedience across the country,” according to the center’s website, and has organized similar protests, including one in Worcester last weekend that led to 10 arrests.
They left the warmth of their parent's basement to protest in cold weather. Surely this must be fake news. :) (Just kiddin' Dave---you know that)
