The New Zealand government is opening up our oceans to deep-sea oil drilling. We should be aware of the potential negative effects this could have. Greenpeace have released this video and a really good educational website on the matter > oilspillmap.org.nz
Meanwhile, 30 international Greenpeace activists/ journalists have now been held for over a month (in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day, being released for 1 hour a day into a ‘concrete block’) and denied bail in Russia under charges of ‘hooliganism’ (piracy charges now dropped) for attempting to protest on a drilling platform in the Arctic.
