Switzerland: Environmental activists have occupied a forest on private land next to the Gabenchopf quarry that supplies limestone to Holcim Schweiz’s Siggenthal cement plant. The activists are protesting about a planned expansion to the quarry, according to the Blick newspaper. Police have described the mood of the activists as ‘peaceful.’ The occupation follows a similar protest against expansion of another Holcim-owned quarry at Mormont, Vaud, in 2021.
