Climate Emergency Shut Down of BP HQ in London
Greenpeace volunteers shut down BP Headquarters in central London. Greenpeace is demanding that BP immediately ends all exploration for new oil and gas and switches to investing only in renewable energy. If BP does not do that, says Greenpeace, it should wind down its operations entirely and go out of business.
The activists encase themselves in specially designed, toughened containers weighing several tonnes each, and block all the HQ’s main entrances and to prevent staff from entering the building.
The containers display photos from photographer Gideon Mendel's Drowning World project which explores the impacts of the climate emergency on people from around the world.
