Greenpeace activists have finished their occupation of Munmorah - a coal-fired power plant on the NSW Central coast. Fifteen activists were arrested.

The occupation, which began before dawn, was to protest against John Howard and Kevin Rudd's dismal climate change policies.

  • Check out our upcoming film about uk climate change activists!

  • Coal Kills? I guess having a steady source of electricity is harmful to people. Who wants to keep warm in the winter anyways. I guess that is why they invented coats?

  • @johndeere772002

    thorium fuel lasts about 100-500 year

    vs

    uranium fuel.

    thorium is also 3 times as abundance,which should last 300 years...far long enough for fusion

  • @Frostfalle

    thorium atomic power plants

    Dude are you saying that coal is the only reasonable energy option?

    Seriously....

  • People....look, flip your light switch....SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!!!! Nuclear is too dangerous, if one wrong spark happens, then you're dead. Wind power doesn't hold the strenght to hold enough power to power as much as coal fired plants. DO NOT get me started on how plants are not as "deadly" as you think!!

  • You need to break the law to peacefully protest?

  • Ya, coal power totally sucks. Lets go nuclear instead!

  • and one last thing, the larger towers at some of the power stations produce steam are part of the water cooling process which is cleaner than any water you will get from your taps... not evil carbon emmisions.

  • there is no way that wind, solar or hydro turbines can hold base load for any established nation. the amount of coal burnt is determined by how much load is placed on the generator. so if you realy want to fix the problem learn to freeze in the dark fuck bags, it takes time to refine and design new ways of generating "cleaner" power and honestly all you are doing is making it take longer by having public resources spent on cleaing up all your so called protests... douche bags
