A | LONDON -- LONDON (AP) — Greta Thunberg was detained by British police on Tuesday alongside other climate activists who gathered outside a central London hotel to disrupt a major oil and gas industry conference.Thunberg was among dozens of protesters who chanted “oily money out” and sought to block access to the luxury InterContinental Hotel on Park Lane, which is hosting the Energy Intelligence Forum. The conference features speakers including the chief executives of Shell, Saudi Arabia’s Aramco and Norway’s Equinor, as well as the U.K.’s energy security minister. An Associated Press photographer saw officers speaking with Thunberg before leading her away and taking her into a police vehicle.Protesters attempted to block access to the conference venue by sitting on the sidewalk by the entrance. They held aloft banners and chanted “oily money out” and “cancel the conference,” while some lit yellow and pink smoke flares.Two Greenpeace activists abseiled down from the roof of the hotel to unfurl a giant banner reading “Make Big Oil Pay.” London's Metropolitan Police said that six people were initially arrested on suspicion of obstructing a highway during the protest. The force said a further 14 were detained on suspicion of disrupting public order, and one other person was detained for criminal damage.Police said they engaged in conversations with the protesters on allowing people to access the venue safely and prevent serious disruption to the hotel and guests, but some of the activists refused to move from the road.No charges have been issued yet.’We were linking arms when the police forced their way in and singled out Greta. She was dragged down the street at speed to a police van where they refused to say where she was being taken," said Joanna Warrington, an organizer with Fossil Free London who was at the demonstration.The protesters accuse fossil fuel companies of deliberately slowing the global energy transition to renewables in order to make more profit.“The world is drowning in fossil fuels. Our hopes and dreams and lives are being washed away by a flood of greenwashing and lies,” Thunberg told reporters before she was detained. “It has been clear for decades that the fossil fuel industries were well aware of the consequences of their business models, and yet they have done nothing.”“We cannot let this continue. The elite of the oil and money conference, they have no intention of transition,” she added. “We have no other option but to put our bodies outside this conference and to physically disrupt. And we have to do that every time, we have to continue showing them that they are not going to get away with this.”Police said those detained were taken into custody and that officers remained on site. Environmental groups say they will continue to protest throughout the planned forum, which is expected to last three days. Thunberg inspired a global youth movement demanding stronger efforts to fight climate change after staging weekly protests outside the Swedish Parliament starting in 2018. She was recently fined by a Swedish court for disobeying police during an environmental protest in Sweden.。 讯 据海关总署消息,随着暑期跨境出游热潮持续升温,广州白云机场口岸客流显著攀升。据广州海关统计,今年暑运启动以来(7月1日至8月10日),广州海关在广州白云机场口岸累计监管进出境航班超1.5万架次,同比增长约11%;监管进出境人员超240万人次,同比增长约15%,创历史同期新高。 广州白云国际机场作为全国三大国际航空枢纽之一,拥有国际及地区通航点超100个,每周进出境国际航班超2500架次,航线网络通达全球。在跨境游的强劲带动下,7月广州白云机场口岸迎来客流高峰。 跨境出行热度高涨,“跨境游+免税购物”“跨境游+离境退税”的组合持续激发消费潜力。目前,广州白云机场口岸在T2、T3航站楼均设有口岸进、出境免税商店和市内免税商店提货点,在售免税商品超1.1万种,品类覆盖化妆品、烟酒、国潮饰品、非遗产品以及国产手机、平板电脑等电子产品。广州市离境退税商店突破1700家,网点广泛覆盖天河路商圈等核心消费集聚区,境外旅客购物退税场景不断丰富。 据统计,7月以来截至8月10日,广州白云机场口岸免税品销售额超约1.5亿元,同比增长3.4%;广州海关累计验放境外旅客离境退税申请单金额超1.05亿元,同比增长约1.5倍。版权申明:凡注有“”或电头为“”的稿件,均为独家版权所有,未经许可不得转载或镜像;授权转载必须注明来源为“”,并保留“”的电头。
