Earth-friendly group protests PNC Bank at Flower Show

    March 9, 2011

    PNC Bank has been a Philadelphia Flower Show sponsor for years, but EQAT finds that a bit hypocritical.

     

    The Earth Quaker Action Team took to the Flower Show today to protest the bank’s support of businesses that engage in moutain top removal. EQAT used “non-violent direct action” at the Flower Show, where we’re told no arrests were made. Peter Crimmins will have the full report later.
