Kids’ big LEGO protest to Save the Arctic from Shell

Kids protested today by building three massive LEGO Arctic animals outside Shell’s HQ in London. With their parents and guardians, they called on LEGO to stop promoting Shell’s logo on their LEGO toys because kids love the Arctic and don’t want Shell to destroy it.

Greenpeace volunteers arrived early this morning to close and secure the road, ready for more than 50 kids, and their parents or guardians, to safely enter the play street for their vibrant protest.

The children constructed a polar bear, walrus and snowy owl reaching up to seven feet high. The giant bricks are made from reinforced cardboard and will be donated to a local school after LEGO ends its deal with Shell.

Nearly 700,000 people have already signed a petition calling on LEGO to end its deal with Shell.

Why 50 children and their families are playing outside Shell's HQ

These kids are really concerned about climate change

Today, 50 children are playfully protesting about LEGO's partnership with Shell outside the oil giant's HQ in London by building their favourite Arctic animals out of oversized LEGO bricks. It’s an unusual but hopefully creative and exciting way of facilitating peaceful protest, which might need a little extra explanation.
