The prehistoric megalithic structure in England has been targeted by activists spraying orange powder paint, social media footage showed.

Environmental protesters sprayed paint on Stonehenge on Wednesday, with footage showing an orange powder covering some of the stones.

Two protesters dressed in white were seen running towards two of the megaliths, spraying paint, as another person attempted to stop them, in footage released by Just Stop Oil, an environmental activist group focused on the issue of human-caused climate change.

    Yeah as a result of this stunt, I googled the term “climate change” and holy shit! Why hasn’t I heard of this!

    So glad they raised my awareness of climate change, which I hadn’t heard of before.

      Amazingly missed the point. This is for the deniers and for all the inaction and half-assed attempts at fixing the problem only to bend to corporate interests. This is shows organization in a group and the means to get things done. What do you think the next steps are if these actions dont beget any changes?

        This is for the deniers

        “Climate change is a liberal hoax! They just want to tax us to death! Look at all the research they fabricated in Climategate!”

        sees people spray orange paint on a rock

        “Wait a second. I think I was looking at this all wrong!”

              The Les Grossman act just made you lose any credibility you might have had. I see people being activists, even if the method is questionable. They are working, as we are all here reading about it. Then you come in with some snide ass comment and vitriol. I see no ignorance on my part. I hope you’re paper does double the work that my toddler is for the climate and wish you best of luck.

        Do you really think any deniers are now convinced?

        Over a century of data pouring in but this act will be what convinces them?
