Lone Climate Activist Single-Handily Cuts UK Carbon Emissions by 2%

Despite being the most heavily secured coal plant in the UK, this week a lone eco-activist known as the "Green Banksy" or "Climate Man" (or perhaps "Climate Woman") hopped the fence at the Kingsnorth Coal Plant, made their way through various security measures, shut down a 500MW turbine and left a calling card saying "No New Coal." They then left the same way they came in. The action shut down enough power to power the city of Bristol for a day, effectively cutting the UK's emissions by 2%. Authorities and plant operators are baffled. The climate activists which have aggressively locked down and blockaded the plant many times over told authorities they had no idea of the culprit's identity. The only thing that is known is that it was a successful monkey wrenching action. Ed Abbey famously wrote a book called "The Monkey Wrench Gang" where a group of mountain state eco-activists travel the countryside sabotaging environmentally damaging machinery. Earth First! has long been known for this sort of work (and in fact Abbey was an early guru to EF!). Now we're seeing a new generation of climate activists that are essentially "carbon wrenching" the gears of the machine that are destroying the climate. I'd expect more of this, not less.
