Inspired by IPBES Global Assessment, New Zealand man becomes longest running protestor outside New Zealand Parliament

{Empty}
After reading the findings of the IPBES Global Assessment, Ollie Langridge—a self-professed “normal guy” and father of five—decided to demand environmental action from the government of New Zealand by running his international company from the Parliament’s front lawn. Expressing concern for his children’s future as his primary motivation, Langridge wants New Zealand to declare a climate emergency, then develop legislation and policy around it. As of 1 August 2019, Langridge has been protesting for 77 consecutive days and has set the record for longest running protest outside the Kiwi Parliament.
