A noisy crowd picketed a Perth shareholders meeting of engineering consultancy firm GHD on November 13.

Protesters demanded that GHD live up to its stated commitment to sustainable development by pulling out of working with Adani on its Carmichael coal mine in Central Queensland.

The action was organised by School Strike 4 Climate.
