Eco-warrior arrested while dressed as ‘Mr Broccoli’ exposed as a White Van Man
A CLIMATE change protester arrested while dressed as broccoli has been exposed as a White Van Man.
Animal Rebellion activist Roland Everson, 46, preached about saving the environment on TV.
But the carpenter drives a gas-guzzling Mercedes-Benz Sprinter thousands of miles around the country setting up glamping pods at festivals.
His diesel van churns out around 2.7 tons of CO2 each year — meaning his carbon footprint is the same as a return flight from London to Sydney.
One neighbour in Badminton, Gloucs, said: “He’s part of a protest to save the planet, but drives everywhere.
"Sounds like he has the brains of a vegetable.”
Everson, arrested during protests in London last week said: “Of course I drive a van. How else am I supposed to get the fruit and veg to market?”
Animal Rebellion said his driving is “a symptom of the system and we are trying to readdress that system”.
