Executive Director of Greenpeace International, Kumi Naidoo and Ulvar Arnkvaern of Norway are escorted from the air terminal in Nuuk, Greenland into a waiting police car after being arrested for scaling the Leiv Eiriksson drill rig 120km off the coast of Greenland. His mission was to to deliver a 50,000 signature petition demanding the public release of Cairn Energy's oil spill response plan. His action comes a week after the operators of the oil platform, Cairn Energy, obtained an injunction against Greenpeace from a Dutch court, imposing fines of 50,000 Euros a day for any breach of the exclusion zone.
