Protest group takes on multinational with rap song
DOZENS of activist, young and old, have attempted to convince a multinational company to end their relationship with Adani through a "colourful" protest which included a rap song about plastic bags.
The #StopAdani Sunshine Coast group gathered outside the Birtinya office of GHD yesterday with Nanook, a life size polar bear.
Protestor Jenny Fitzgibbon addressed the crowd with a rap about plastic and a song about polar bears.
She then led the group into a chant: "Coal is dead GHD. Be the change you want to see".
Similar protests were held from Townsville to Hobart as part of the group's National Week of Action.
A GHD spokesman declined to comment.
"We are calling on GHD to pull out of Adani's dirty coal mine and stand with the two-thirds of Australians who oppose this project," #StopAdani spokesman David Bowling said.
