Paula's looking for work .. we've got something for her

You are all brilliant.

We asked for your help to raise the cash to buy a polar bear which has become dear to our hearts (well, polar bear costume) and the response has been amazing. You've more than matched our target of £4,000 to find a new home for Paula Bear, and the current total is up around £4,500.

UPDATE: We've hit our target - thank you!

We need your help to save the polar bear. Well, one polar bear in particular.

Greenpeace have the opportunity to buy an astonishingly realistic polar bear costume to use in our work to tackle the causes of climate change - and help us stop reckless oil companies from drilling in the pristine Arctic wilderness.

Rig spearheading new Arctic oil rush halted by direct action

22 April, 2011

22nd April, Turkey - The only oil rig in the world destined to begin risky new deep sea drilling in the waters off the Arctic has been stopped in its tracks by environmental activists. The huge 53,000 tonne oil rig, called the Leiv Eiriksson, is journeying from a shipyard in Turkey towards Baffin Bay, Greenland - blazing a trail for the world’s major oil companies and spearheading the start of a dangerous new Arctic oil rush.
