London Rising Tide's Greenwash Guerillas Brigade, Detection Platoon #1, moved into action on Monday morning at 08:00 hours – targeting energy corporation Électricité de France (EDF) at the central London headquarters of their UK subsidiary EDF Energy.
EDF has recently bought out British Energy and have anounced that they plan to build 4 new nuclear power stations in the UK in the coming years.
Inspired by our sisters and brothers in France demonstrating against new nuclear power, we chose to target EDF's attempts to muscle in their FALSE nuclear solution to the looming disaster of catastrophic climate chaos. Our action (consisting of 12 Greenwash Guerillas) highlighted the dangers of nuclear power to the biosphere, humanity, and REAL renewable energy solutions.
On 20th October Greenwash Guerrillas visited the EDF headquarters to warn employees of the dangers of engaging with nuclear greenwash. EDF were obviously aware of the danger of their product as we were met with a wall of security. We advised employees entering the building and passersby of the dangers inside and demonstrated with our Greenwash detectors that they were already contaminated. We handed out information about why nuclear greenwash was not a solution to Climate Change or sustainable energy generation. Before leaving we advised the organisation that we would be back to monitor the situation.
