Anti-Arctic drilling kayak activists hold ‘Shell No’ protest
SEATTLE — Activists opposed to drilling for oil in the Arctic plan to launch a flotilla of kayaks and other boats on Seattle’s Elliott Bay on Saturday, two days after the arrival of a towering oil rig that is the centerpiece of Shell’s Arctic drilling fleet.
The “Paddle in Seattle” — a daylong, family friendly festival in a West Seattle park and an on-the-water protest by “Shell No” kayaktivists — aims to continue the message sent as the Polar Pioneer drilling rig arrived: “Stand up for the climate and say no to Shell’s drilling plans.”
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
