Around 140 flights were cancelled at Germany's busiest airport, Frankfurt, after climate
00:07
activists glued themselves to the tarmac. The group is demanding the German government
00:13
negotiate and signed an agreement to eliminate the use of gas, oil and coal by 2030.
00:20
The problem is that our government has to be honest. Our government supports the
00:26
aviation industry by giving away billions of euros in taxes every year. And not just the
00:30
aviation industry, but other climate-damaging industries as well. Our government has to
00:35
finally communicate honestly that it can't go on like this, that the aviation industry
00:39
also has to be driven down socially. Flight operations began gradually resuming
00:46
shortly before 8am. On Wednesday, Oil Kills activists staged a protest at Geneva and Zurich
00:54
airports in Switzerland, calling for an end to the use of fossil fuels by entering the
01:01
airfields and sitting down on the runways, as well as blocking access roads to the airports.
