This action was part of #OperationStorm, three days of disruptive protests against companies benefiting from fossil subsidies. The top 10 recipients are foreign companies that exploit cheap Dutch energy, all while taxpayers foot the bill. This system is unsustainable, and fossil subsidies must end.

“In just over a week, on November 21 and 22, #OperationStorm will hit the gates of large polluting companies in various places in the country. Rebels are demanding an end to the sickening and even deadly emissions”
Over iets meer dan een week, op 21 en 22 november, beukt #OperatieStorm op diverse plekken in het land op de poorten van grote vervuilende bedrijven. Rebellen eisen een eind aan de ziekmakende en zelfs dodelijke uitstoot. [1/3]
