The Leiv Eiriksson Oil Rig from Turkey bound for Greenland

Greenpeace activists take direct action to protect the pristine Arctic environment from oil exporation by stopping the drilling rig Leiv Eiriksson from departing Turkish waters for Baffin Bay, Greenland. The rig is due to begin deep water oil exploration for wildcat oil company Cairn Energy, which is leading the new Arctic oil rush.
