Ligeti Quartet at Shell HQ Protest in London
Val Welbanks of the Ligeti Quartet plays her cello in front of a gigantic polar bear, named Aurora, who is moved to Shell's HQ in a protest against Arctic Drilling. Just over two weeks ago Shell got the final permits it needs to start drilling for oil in the melting Arctic Ocean, risking an oil spill in icy waters that would be almost impossible to clean up.
