Break Free from Fossil Fuels
Philippines Break Free from Coal
BATANGAS CITY MAY 4, 2016 - Thousands of people from different sectarian and religious groups march around Batangas City to protest coal. Around 8 proposed coal-fire power plants are set to be constructed around the province, countering the Philippines' climate initiative of reducing carbon emissions as part of the COP21 agreement.
Break Free 2016 is a week of coordinated direct actions that target the most dangerous fossil fuel projects, in an effort to keep coal, oil and gas in the ground and accelerate a just transition to 100% renewable energy. Thousands of people all over the planet are putting their bodies on the line to send a message to polluters and politicians that we need to break free from fossil fuels now.
