Three Greenpeace activists have been removed by police after protesting Fonterra’s shareholder meeting.

The activists set up a nitrate contamination tent and dumped two tonnes of simulated “toxic” slime at Fonterra HQ, forcing shareholders to walk through it, mirroring what many New Zealand communities are expected to live with as dairy pollution contaminates rivers and peoples' drinking water.

Four police officers attempt to remove an activist in a yellow hazmat suit, locked to a tank of green slime that's also spilled on the floor. They're all next to a quarantine tent.

Greenpeace activists in Auckland set up a 'nitrate emergency quarantine zone' outside of New Zealand’s largest dairy company, Fonterra, on the day of the company's annual investment meeting. They poured 2 metric tonnes of slime around the building in protest of rising pollution of lakes, rivers, and drinking water from the intensive dairy industry.
