The headquaters of BAM have been targeted by a group of protestors
complaining of it's plans to help build a new coal plant at Kingsnorth
while marketing itself a "sustainable construction company".

The protestors are part of the Climate Camp movement and in perticular
the E.ON F.OFF campaign.

“BAM Nuttall say they need this work because of the recession, but this
completely misses the point. If we keep burning coal, then we’ll lose a
lot more than just our jobs – people’s homes, health, food supply, and
the stability of our society are all at risk from climate change.
Instead, we need to build a sustainable society, powered by renewable
energy from the wind, sun and tides, which will lead to better ways to
live and work. We need to make sure that this transition is a fair one,
actively involving workers from the energy industry. We’re hoping to
have some interesting conversations with BAM staff today about all of
these issues!”
