A climate change protester has spray-painted the Woodside Energy logo onto the front doors of Western Australia (WA) parliament house to criticise the government’s investment in fossil fuels.

The protest action on Tuesday was part of a campaign by WA-based climate change group Disrupt Burrup Hub. The group targets Burrup Hub, which it described as Australia’s biggest fossil fuel project, owned by Woodside Energy, one of the country’s largest independent energy companies.
