Activists are holding a five-day climate camp
Five people were arrested after environmental activists staged a day of resistance at the Ineos oil refinery at Grangemouth, near Falkirk.
Police said they engaged with the group who climbed onto the roof and they were safely removed, with no arrests made. “We can build truly sustainable communities, but we must be led by those whose lives are most at risk, locally and globally.“This energy system is failing us, but Scotland and Grangemouth can transition to sustainable industry and greater equality. We’re here to drive that change together.”Assistant Chief Constable Emma Bond said: “This afternoon, a small group of protesters climbed onto the roof at Ineos. Officers engaged with the group and they were later safely removed.
“Our priority is public safety and we worked closely with partners ahead of the planned event to ensure a comprehensive policing plan was in place to maintain people’s safety, enable peaceful protest and minimise disruption.”Climate activists claim that combined emissions from the Ineos gas power station and the oil refinery it powers make it Scotland’s most polluting site, creating 2.
