Anti Oil Protest at WEC in Montreal
Greenpeace activists in oil-covered bathing suits staged a “Black Tide Beach Party” to tell participants at the World Energy Congress (WEC) in Montreal that there is an urgent need for the world to move beyond dirty, risky oil and develop more clean energy to combat climate change. In addition to this event, Greenpeace and 27 other organizations organized a rally of hundreds of activists outside the Montreal Convention Centre to greet the 5,000 participants from government, industry, international organizations, universities and energy industry associations at the opening of the congress. The activists held banners in French and English calling for the congress to “Go Beyond Oil.”
