THREE Extinction Rebellion activists will go on trial next Monday after targeting the offices of petro-engineering multinational Worley in Brentford.
The activists are accused of causing more than £6,000 in “damages” to the £3.9 billion firm in a protest involving washable fake oil and chalk spray, over its ties to the East African Crude Oil Pipeline.
Worley has been contracted to lay the pipeline, which activists say will increase CO2 emissions by 379 million tonnes over its lifetime if completed.
