Multiple climate protesters"shut down entry" to BlackRock's New York City headquarters Friday after they stormed the barricades outside. "Along with 75 other activists with pitchforks, they shut down the HQ entrance to demand that the company - the world’s largest investor in fossil fuels - end new investments in coal, oil and gas, in line with the basic scientific requirements of avoiding global climate catastrophe," the group stated.
Will Hild, executive director for Consumers' Research, shared the movement's clip in a tweet and referred to those who rushed the barricades as"far-left green activists" engaged in"political theatre.""Much like AOC's now infamous 'arrest' - this is all political theatre. @BlackRock CEO Larry Fink uses crazies like this to try to position himself as a ‘reasonable centrist.
