Say No To Shell's Arctic Drilling

Today, Shell's drilling rig was starting to head towards the Arctic. The Seattle Kayaktivists were there to stop them.

Shell's drilling rigs are set on their way to the Arctic.

The drill was first planned to be done in 2012, but was postponed due to some problems and a lawsuit.

This drill is especially important, as scientists say that all the oil under the Arctic, should STAY under the Arctic, or else, our future is doomed. The climate change will grow even faster; with the California drought, storms, and the pollution that exists already, that isn't good news, at all.

Greenpeace's hastags, #ShellNo, #SaveTheArctic & #PeopleVsShell, are growing.

This is serious, people.

In 2012, they attempted to drill the Arctic, but a few problems with their drilling equipment led to a lawsuit, which Shell lost.

The drill has a high percentage -%75, according to government scientists, on the possibility of a spill. A spill that is extremely hard to clean up, and will make the climate change even faster.

The drill was approved on 31.3.2015.

So people of the world, please sign the petition made by Greenpeace.

If they spill, it won't be the first.

Shell is known for their spills; one of the biggest being the Nigeria spill.
