Cape Wind Direct Communication Robert Kennedy
A Greenpeace inflatable cruises near the schooner "Spirit of Massachusetts" in Nantucket Sound with a banner reading "Bobby You're on the Wrong Boat, Yes to Cape Wind." The action was to ask Robert F. Kennedy Jr., aboard the ship as part of a Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound event, to change his opposition to the Cape Wind energy project.

Cape Wind Banner Nantucket Sound
Greenpeace protests the obstruction of the United State's first offshore wind farm on the waters of Nantucket Sound. The four-year-old battle started heating up last summer when Greenpeace USA staged a demonstration against well-known eco-activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who's been an outspoken opponent of the proposal for a 130-turbine wind-power project in Horseshoe Shoal, a shallow portion of Nantucket Sound south of Cape Cod. Kennedy -- a senior attorney at Natural Resources Defence Council and a pioneer in the waterway-protection movement -- was on a sailboat for an event with the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound, which opposes the wind project. A Greenpeace vessel cruised up alongside with a banner that read, "Bobby, you're on the wrong boat" -- an action that was part of a larger Greenpeace campaign pressuring Kennedy to change his mind on the development.
