ACTIVISTS DISRUPT OPERATION AT VICTORIA'S LOY YANG POWER STATION.
MELBOURNE, Sept 3 Asia Pulse - Four members of a group calling itself `Real Action on Climate' have chained themselves to a coal-carrying conveyor belt at the Loy Yang power station as a way of sending a message to APEC leaders in Sydney.
The action has disrupted generation at the power station which supplies Victoria with about one third of its energy needs.
Spokeswoman for the activists, Michaela Stubbs, says the protest is just one of several actions targeting the fossil fuel industry across Australia today.
"This is the type of visionary action that the Asia Pacific Economic Forum (APEC) is unable to take," Ms Stubbs said.
