Hi there,
Right now, Shell petrol stations are being shut down across London and Edinburgh.
Teams of Greenpeace volunteers are fanning out across the two cities, going station to station shutting down the pumps. In total, over 100 forecourts will be out of action. We're broadcasting live throughout the day on a special online TV channel - watch live now.
Why are we doing this? Because Shell is lining up a fleet of huge oil drilling vessels and later this month, for the first time, will start drilling for oil in the Arctic, off the coast of Alaska.
You can protect the Arctic from Shell's dangerous plans. We're declaring a global sanctuary around the pole, to become enforceable by international law, that will mean a ban on oil drilling and other activities that threaten the Arctic.
There isn't much time to stop Shell's plans. Sign up now to help us create an Arctic sanctuary, safe from Shell and other reckless oil companies. Over 850,000 people have already signed up - join them!
The Arctic is a dangerous place to go drilling - an oil spill would wreak havoc on the fragile, vulnerable environment. Shell's own plans show how difficult it will be to mop up if a spill happens in the Arctic.
By chasing after hard-to-reach oil in remote and dangerous places, Shell is putting polar bears, walruses and other Arctic wildlife at risk.
That's why we're shutting down the pumps at so many Shell petrol stations.
You can stop Shell. Join us in declaring a global Arctic sanctuary.
Let's go!
