Judge: Anti-Pipeline Activists' Acts Necessary To Fight Climate Change

quote [ The activists spoke in court about why the struggle against climate change was important and connected the local struggle against the West Roxbury Lateral Pipeline to national and international struggles to “stem the catastrophic effects of climate change.”

“The court made a ruling that by reason of necessity they were all not responsible for committing any civil infraction,” Raisler-Cohen added. ]

I've never heard of this blog, but I couldn't find any other reports on this.

I think this is something we'll see more of as these pipelines continue. Fighting against environmental exploitation is becoming an act of self-defense.
