A series of posters calling for climate action from Nelson City Council, coinciding with Earth Day 2022, have been removed from Nelson's Civic House this morning.
Extinction Rebellion Whakatū representative Te Wehi Ratana confirmed to Local Democracy Reporting that they were the group behind the 12 posters glued on the building's windows overnight.
"We left 12 messages to give council 12 reasons as to why they are failing the people they represent," he said.
Some posters that had been taken down by 8.30am Friday read "The Climate Action Plan From Nelson Tasman Climate Forum Is Not Binding" and "Current NCC Councillor Who Assaulted A Woman On Camera Remains Employed And Unpunished".
