Shell Petrol Stations Shutdown in London

Greenpeace volunteers scale the roof and operate a life-sized super-realistic polar bear puppet during an action against Shell. The environmental group intends to close over 100 stations in London, and over a dozen in Edinburgh, by using the emergency shut-off switch, which stops petrol going to the pumps, and removing the fuse so it can’t immediately be turned back on again.

Shell Petrol Stations Shutdown in London

Greenpeace campaigners attempt to shut down every Shell petrol station in the capital cities of London and Edinburgh just as the oil company is about to drill in the Arctic for the very first time.The environmental group, who recently launched a star-studded campaign to save the Arctic, intend to close over 100 stations in London, and over a dozen in Edinburgh, by using the emergency shut-off switch, which stops petrol going to the pumps, and removing the fuse so it can’t immediately be turned back on again.Shell is due to begin drilling at two offshore sites in the Alaskan Arctic in the coming weeks, amid fears that an Arctic oil rush will be sparked and the push to carve up the region will accelerate. Russian oil giant Gazprom is also venturing into the Arctic this year.
