Arctic 30 Ice Action at Gazprom in Berlin

15 Greenpeace Germany activists protest with portraits of the Arctic 30, frozen in ice cubes, in front of the Gazprom headquarters in Berlin. Ice cubes on a stage form the slogan "Save the Arctic".
A Twitter demonstration accompanies the action.

Greenpeace demands that Gazprom cease their high-risk oil exploration in the Arctic. The protesters also repeated demands for the release of the "Arctic 30", (28 Greenpeace International activists, as well as a freelance photographer and a freelance videographer) currently in custody pending investigations into a peaceful Arctic oil protest.
