Climate change protesters are disrupting commuters in Brisbane city this morning, with ten minute bouts of ‘swarming’ to cause congestion.

In a live stream on Facebook, Extinction Rebellion’s Tom Howell says while disruption isn’t comfortable, it’s the only way to promote change and convince the government to address the mass extinction.

Hecklers told the disrupters "you might have got the day off work, but we didn’t."
