Climate Protest Disrupts Australia Coal Port

Some people who care about the environment, called activists, went to a big harbor in Australia where they ship a lot of coal.

They used kayaks to block the ships from coming in and out.

Some even climbed onto a coal ship to stop it from working.

The police arrested 21 people on Sunday and 11 the day before for doing this.

The activists want the government to do more to stop climate change because coal makes a lot of pollution.

Australia says they want to stop making greenhouse gases by the year 2050, but the activists think they need to do more right now.

Coal is one of the things Australia sells to other countries to make money, along with iron ore.
