Activists dump cow poop to protest Biden climate plan
From THEHILL.COM
Climate activists gathered in Washington, D.C., on Thursday to dump wheelbarrows full of cow poop near the White House in protest of President Biden’s climate plan, which they say is “bulls---” and does not go far enough to protect the environment.
Videos posted on Twitter from the Earth Day demonstration featured a group of at least a dozen demonstrators pushing pink wheelbarrows downtown toward the White House, where Biden is hosting a two-day virtual climate summit with dozens of world leaders.
The demonstrators then dumped the manure onto the street, along with signs and banners reading, “Stop the bulls---,” and “Declare climate emergency now!”
Photos showed the piles of dung lingering in the street even after demonstrators dispersed.
