'Ocean Destroyer' Fender Action in Antarctica
Greenpeace activists supported by the Esperanza tow a fender bearing the message “Ocean Destroyer.” In a peaceful and safe protest the activists attempted to deliver the fender to the Taganrogskiy Zaliv reefer.
The fender was discovered by scientists, washed up on Elephant Island, home of an important Antarctic penguin colony. Fenders are used by refrigerated cargo vessels (reefers) to stop them from colliding with fishing boats while they transfer cargo.
The Greenpeace ship Esperanza is on the final leg of the 'Protect The Oceans' voyage from the Arctic to the Antarctic. The almost year-long voyage is one of Greenpeace’s biggest ever expeditions and highlights the many threats facing the oceans while campaigning for a Global Ocean Treaty covering all seas outside of national waters.
