Protesters at Science Museum demand end to fossil fuel ties
[Fossil Free Science Museum]

PROTESTERS gathered outside London’s Science Museum to demand an end to its fossil fuel ties on Saturday ahead of a new gallery opening.

A 12-metre banner the full height of the museum was unfurled inside its energy hall as protesters streamed through the museum chanting “Adani out!”

The protest came as the museum prepares to open a new gallery tomorrow sponsored by the much-criticised coalmining and arms-producing conglomerate Adani, which will join fossil fuel giant BP and Norwegian oil firm Equinor as sponsors of the museum.
