With a 15 meter banana peel placed on the roof of the Shell Technology Center in Amsterdam, they send the message that "Shell has gone bananas."The action starts with a paraglider landing on the roof of the Shell building. Shortly afterwards, the huge banana peel is situated on the roof, along with a banner reading "Noordpool Boringen: 75% Kans op Ramp! (North Pole Driling: 75% Chance of a Disaster!)" This number refers to the risks Shell is taking in the Arctic: there is a 75% chance that an accident will happen during the oil drilling (according to the US government). Several activists, including Greenpeace NL Executive Director Sylvia Borren, are in kayaks in the water of the IJ.Related Collections:Action on Shell Building in Amsterdam (Photos & Videos)
