Decommissioning Brent Spar Photo
The Brent Spar is being used as the base for a new quay in Norway, after it was brought ashore in 1998 and recycled. The Brent Spar campaign is remembered as one of the most significant Greenpeace successes of the 1990s. Greenpeace called for the offshore industry to take proper environmental responsibility for its obsolete platforms and other wastes, rather than using the oceans as a dumping ground. All the evidence has since shown that, as Shell itself later concluded, recycling the Brent Spar was the most environmentally sound option. Ten years after Greenpeace activists first occupied the Brent Spar on 30 April 1995, Greenpeace continues its mission to defend ocean life.
