As we showed earlier today, Greenpeace staged a protest this morning in Houston to shut down the oil shipping channels. They claimed they were making a statement about oil & gas that they intend to have mentioned during the Democrat presidential debate being held this evening.
One intrepid and not-at-all mousy protestor from the organization sent out a tweet early this morning from their staging area at the port.
Hope they enjoy their time in jail, those who were suspended off the bridge all just got arrested.
Climate activists from Greenpeace are found "hanging around" in Houston before the Democratic debates.
The protest against fossil fuels ended up shutting down the channel. pic.twitter.com/lbJUkwMCY5
