This collection is a tighter edit of key 'Arctic 30' videos, including the Gazprom action followed by events taking place in Murmansk and Saint Petersburg.

On 18 September 2013, Greenpeace peacefully protested against the giant Prirazlomnaya oil rig, where Gazprom intends to become the first company to pump oil from icy Arctic waters. Over a day later, the ship was illegally boarded by armed special forces, before being towed to Murmansk, Russia. The Arctic 30 includes twenty-eight activists, as well as a freelance videographer and a freelance photographer. Greenpeace International executive director Kumi Naidoo has stated, "The Arctic is melting before our eyes, and these brave activists stand in defiance of those who wish to exploit this unfolding crisis to drill for more oil."
