Kayactavists Prepare For Shell Icebreaker To Arrive In Portland
by Amelia Templeton OPB | July 18, 2015
Climate change activists in Portland are planning to take to the water in kayaks to engage in civil disobedience when an ice-breaking vessel working for the Royal Dutch Shell oil company arrives at a local dry dock for repairs.
The ship, the MSV Fennica, is part of the fleet Shell plans to use to explore for oil and gas this summer in Alaska’s Chukchi Sea. It gashed its hull in shallow waters off the coast of Northwest Alaska on July 3, and will be repaired at the Vigor Industrial shipyard in Portland.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
