While BNP Paribas uses its sponsorship of the event to advertise its services, spectators should also be aware of its planned role in funding the construction of a dangerous and obsolete nuclear reactor in Brazil. BNP Paribas provides more finance to the nuclear industry than any other bank in the world and is planning to fund the construction of another reactor, Angra 3 in Angra dos Reis, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Greenpeace demands the company diverts the investment to renewable energy.
