TWO Just Stop Oil supporters sprayed several departure boards at Heathrow Airport with orange paint today.

The protest was part of the Oil Kills uprising, a series of actions co-ordinated by climate groups across 12 countries.

The activists are demanding that governments establish a fossil fuel treaty to end the extraction and burning of oil, gas and coal by 2030. Actions have taken place at 18 airports so far.
