Extinction Rebellion protesters held a climate protest with demonstrators lying under body sheets outside a petrol station.
The demonstrators had their feet toe tagged with named victims that the group says were “killed by climate change”.
Ten activists from the Dacorum group gathered outside the Shell garage in London Road, Apsley today (September 3) and had other demonstrative acts to show their stance against climate change.
Two people were dressed as Shell executives in a tea party, throwing cash around and spilling “oil” from a teapot.

A letter was handed to the manager of the petrol station.
Raeeka Yassaie, from the group, said that there should be no new fossil fuel projects if the government aims to reduce emissions and added “it’s a mistake we can’t afford to make”.
