Action at the Prezioso Oil Rig in Italy

Activists from the Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior occupy the Prezioso offshore oil rig operated by the Italian oil company ENI in the Sicilian Channel. The activists unfurl a 120 meter square banner depicting the Italian Prime Minister, Matteo Renzi, with a satirical message promising Piu Trivelle per Tutti (More Offshore Drilling For Everybody) and Greenpeaces demand to Stop Fossil Go Renewable . Other activists aboard a life raft anchored to the base of the platform, display more pro-renewable banners.
Greenpeace is protesting against an Italian governmental decree that offers incentives for offshore drilling and asks Prime Minister Renzi to promote ambitious EU renewable energy targets at a meeting on the 23th and 24th of October.
