Radical Greens Reject Most Climate-Change Solutions LOUISA, Va. — Under arrest, Paxus Calta raised two fingers from his shackled hand to flash a peace sign. Fellow environmental activists cheered as police escorted him to the van that would take him to jail.
He had intended to get arrested, as he had before in 12 countries on three continents.
For two hours, Calta and 19 other protesters associated with the grassroots group Rising Tide North America had occupied the visitor's center at Dominion's North Anna Nuclear Power Station.
While radical groups and their tactics are by no means new, climate change is a new cause for them.
