Help #SaveTheArctic in your town

Greenpeace has grabbed headlines with dramatic images of activists boarding Shell’s ships. 100’s of thousands of you have emailed Shell to demand they scrap their Arctic plans, and then you've signed the Arctic scroll – asking world leaders to create a global sanctuary in the Arctic.

However to #SaveTheArctic we’re all going to need to do much more, and I’d like to help you do it.

Recovery for Europe’s fisheries, or just wishful thinking?

Basic first aid tells you the most important thing to do is not cause any more harm: don’t make things worse. That makes sense, of course, but if you happen upon someone lying bleeding on the pavement, simply not kicking them on the way past isn’t really a good enough reaction.

I’ve been struggling for analogies to use, ways to try and explain just what is so bad about the recent EU Council ‘agreement’ on fish stocks.
