Protesters Paint Coal Green Outside World Bank Meeting (Video)

Posted in:

Posted in Video & Media

A small group of protesters attracted plenty of attention on the streets outside the World Bank’s recent meeting in Washington DC by painting oil barrels and lumps of coal green.

A spokesperson was on hand to explain how the protest represents the World Bank’s excessive greenwashing:

Don’t be fooled. The World Bank has great environmental rhetoric… but when you look at what they actually do, you find that they’re financing the greatest causes of climate change: fossil fuels.

Check out the video bellow the jump. It may be the closest coal will ever get to being “green.”
