On August 23 the Greenpeace ship Esperanza arrived in the icy waters of the Arctic to confront a British company’s dangerous deepwater oil drilling operation in one of the most fragile environments on earth.
Greenpeace has singled out Cairn Energy, which is currently drilling two wells off the West coast of Greenland in an area known as ‘iceberg alley’. If Cairn is successful the Arctic could be flooded with oil companies, all trying to operate in hazardous polar conditions. The region is also famous for its populations of blue whales, polar bears, seals and migratory birds.
