Amsterdam, November 8 (RHC)-- In the Netherlands, Dutch border guards arrested more than 100 climate activists after over 500 demonstrators spread out across Amsterdam’s main airport and blocked private jets from taking off.
The protesters are demanding a ban on unnecessary short-haul flights and the widespread use of highly polluting private aircraft by wealthy elites. They also want authorities to cancel a planned expansion of Amsterdam’s airport.
