PERTH/SYDNEY, 20 October 2023 - Greenpeace Australia Pacific has welcomed reports today that Woodside has FINALLY removed a toxic oil tower from the West Australian coastline. Greenpeace activists occupied the tower in April and demanded that the fossil fuel giant clean up its toxic waste.
Greenpeace Australia Pacific activists have climbed and documented a toxic, discarded oil tower owned by fossil fuel company Woodside Energy. The activists, who are calling on Woodside to stop polluting Western Australia’s oceans, dropped a banner reading: “Woodside, Don’t Be a Tosser.”
Woodside, Australia’s biggest gas company, has a big problem that it’s trying to hide, and they’re looking to hide it in one of our most precious ocean environments.
Greenpeace Australia Pacific has condemned the “unacceptable” climate and environmental impacts listed in Woodside’s final Environmental Impact Statement for its Browse gas field, saying that it confirms why this toxic offshore drilling project must not go ahead.
