The police announced that 13 Greenpeace activists were arrested on Wednesday, after they scaled the cooling tower of DEI’s steam electric power station in Agios Dimitrios near Kozani.

After spending about 14 hours on the cooling tower, protesting climate change, the activists were asked by the police to climb down at about 7:30 in the evening, at which point they were arrested.

The 13 activists will face property damages and breach of public peace charges.
