Plans for 'mass direct action' by eco activists against the INEOS Grangemouth oil refinery have raised fears over the country's fuel supplies.
Eco warriors are set to target Scotland’s biggest fuel depot in a move which could see pumps run dry across the country.
Organisers hope a blockade will have the same impact as a truckers’ blockade in 2000 which led to fuel shortages in forecourts across Scotland. Its website accuses Ratcliffe of “stashing record profits in a tax haven while the community here is blighted by pollution and struggling with food and gas bills, and spiralling climate emissions take more and more lives”.
The handbook also contains advice not to speak to police and how to obtain legal representation if needed. The exact location of the five-day camp will be revealed to activists ahead of its launch next Wednesday. A spokesperson for Climate Camp Grangemouth told the Record: “Climate Camp Grangemouth is an opportunity for locals, workers and climate activists to come together and work toward a future that doesn’t rely on exploitation of the community, nor destruction of our climate.
