Photos - Oil Spill to save wildlife ?
03-02-2007 23:37
While a banner was dropped in the main hall and 600 leaflets handed out to members of the public, an oil like substance was sprayed over the wildlife photos in the Shell sponsored exhibition. There were a large number of security personnel present and some of the protesters were assaulted by panicking museum staff and members of the public but there were no arrests.
The action follows the publication of Shell's 2006 record breaking financial figures and the release of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change fourth report which yet again suggests that climate change is happening faster then previously predicted.

released earnings figures that broke
their previous record for profits by any
corporation in history, has been paying
many pseudo-science hacks to argue
the facts and keep the public confused.
Here is a comment from Robert F.
Kennedy Jr. on the matter.
