Climate activist glued to door of Lastminute.com - 7th June 2007

An environmental activist was so enraged that lastminute.com continue to push ‘short haul’ flights whilst knowing the damage they do to the climate, that she super-glued herself to the front door of the company’s Victoria HQ.

At 8am this morning, Penny Eastwood – a member of climate action group, Plane Stupid, pasted superglue over her hands and glued herself to the front doors of the building - blocking staff from entering their offices.

Penny said, “Whilst G8 leaders have simply spouted more hot air, I’ve showed what one woman alone can do to shut down climate criminals.”

She added, “Lastminute.com irresponsibly encourages people to binge-fly five times a year. They’re forcing the world towards the brink of eco-meltdown and all for a quick buck!

Penny Eastwood is one of those planning to attend this summer’s Camp for Climate Action at Heathrow.
