Kayak Climate Action at G7 Summit in Italy

Near the Giardini Naxos beach in Taormina, Greenpeace activists in kayaks unfurl flags and banners with the messages 'Planet Earth first', 'Resist' and 'Stop Climate Change'. Greenpeace is calling on the G7 leaders to rapidly implement the Paris Climate Agreement, a generation-defining pact signed by nearly 200 countries, and to resolutely move forward despite the threats of US President Trump to abandon the agreement.
Climate and weather-related disasters and security risks will progressively worsen if we keep burning coal, oil and gas. Our future and the lives of billions of people across the world are at stake right now. Our answer to Trump’s ‘America first’ has to be ‘Planet Earth First.’
