Climate change activists stage airport demo
PROTESTERS dressed as Prime Minister Gordon Brown were set to stage a demonstration at Edinburgh Airport today.
The protest was part of a day of action to raise awareness of the impact flying has on climate change.
And the group was to call on Gordon Brown and local MPs to pay more attention to emissions from aeroplanes and shipping.
Across the UK around 131 groups were expected to urge the Government to ensure that the new Climate Change Law covers all sources of climate changing emissions.
