Pacific Climate Warriors did something amazing earlier this month. Using traditional canoes, they paddled out to block the path of coal ships headed toward the world’s largest coal port in Newcastle, Australia. Milañ Loeak, daughter of the president of the Marshall Islands, was among the protestors. Watch her speak out about the blockade and the collective faith and strength of the Pacific Warriors.
