The new wave of climate activists and the laws designed to stop them

Full Story - Podcast készítő The Guardian

New activist groups such as Blockade Australia and Fireproof Australia are on the rise, with a series of recent climate protests blocking major roads, bridges and coal ports. In response, the NSW government has passed new laws that could see such protesters spend up to two years in jail. Sam Noonan and Violet Coco, members of Fireproof Australia, speak about why they joined the radical group, and journalist Royce Kurmelovs explores the rise in anti-protest laws, which are contributing to what human rights organisations call a ‘climate of repression’
