Netherlands: Environmental activists to protest in central Eindhoven Nov. 8

Environmental activists plan to protest in 18 Septemberplein, Eindhoven 11:00-13:00 Nov. 8. Campaigners led by Extinction Rebellion (XR) will denounce the role of agriculture in climate change, and target the ABZ Animal Nutrition company in particular. It is possible that several hundred protestors will take part.

Local authorities will likely deploy increased security to the demonstration. Security measures, possible road closures, and increased congestion may cause localized road travel disruptions. The event is likely to pass off peacefully however militant campaigners may take part in acts of vandalism and graffiti, and may attempt to block entrances to commercial buildings, thereby causing further business disruptions.
