OIL giants are making firefighters’ jobs harder, a Fire Brigades Union (FBU) rep warned as he joined a protest outside Shell HQ’s London headquarters yesterday.
Andy Warren, in a personal capacity, held a placard that read “Big Oil Makes Our Job Harder” as he joined campaigners in London warning over fossil fuel profiteering’s links to the LA wildfires.
He said: “Firefighters know that the increasingly frequent and destructive wildfires we face are the responsibility of the fossil fuel industry and its disregard for human life.
