Hundreds of kayaks and small boats blocked the entrance to the port while thousands supported from the shore.

Green Left spoke to attendees of the blockade about why it is so important to support it.

The #PeoplesBlockade was organised by Rising Tide and supported by a range of climate and social justice organisations.
