WHO
Earl Beadle
WHAT
Direct action for Greenpeace Canada
WHY
Making an impact with an edge. “I sat in a tripod for 15 hours while we blockaded the Kimberly-Clark plant from receiving pulp from the boreal. We were able to create dialogue with the company to try to get it to use more recycled content.”
INSPIRATION
Majestic 95-metre high, 400-year-old Swamp Gums in the heavily logged Valley of the Styx in Tasmania. “The devastation is what inspired me to get involved.”
TOUGHEST PART
“The sacrifice of taking time off work or everyday life. It’s hard to get a point across to people.”
