Volunteers Protest against Deep Sea Mining in the UK

Volunteers from Greenpeace UK take part in a nationwide protest calling for the UK Government to ban deep sea mining. Volunteers photographed home made banners at different locations. These images will be sent directly to Government to make it clear that people across the UK do not support plans to rip up the ocean floor for profit. This nationwide banner protest is the latest step in the campaign to protect our oceans. Earlier in the year local volunteers hosted online screenings of Greenpeace’s docu-series Ocean Witness, and hundreds of people tweeted the Foreign Office Minister Zac Goldsmith about the need for a strong Global Ocean Treaty.
