Activists chained to Eskom building

23 October 2012
Greenpeace activists chained themselves on Tuesday (23/10/2012) to the entrance of Megawatt Park, Eskom’s headquarters in Johannesburg.

"Eskom is under new management,” the protesters announced in a banner dropped by a team of climbers, said Greenpeace spokeswoman Fiona Musana.

The banner carried the logos of Greenpeace, groundWork and Earthlife Africa — organisations which campaign for environmental protection, clean air and renewable energy.

The action was taken "to confront Eskom over bad choices and demand new management”, said Musana.

"We are having a brief conversation with Eskom management,” she said.

Eskom spokeswoman Hilary Joffe was not immediately available for comment. - Sapa
