Climate Action in Civitavecchia during G8 in Italy

Photo | July 10, 2009

Greenpeace activists paint "G8: failed!" on the side of the coal carrying ship Gallia Graeca, from South Africa, to send a message to the world's leaders who ended the G8 summit in L'Aquila with scant progress on saving the climate. The action is part of a week long nationwide protest in which Greenpeace has occupied five Italian coal plants, calling on the G8 leaders to take the lead on climate.

In the culmination of a week of climate protests focusing on the G8, Greenpeace activists write "G8: FAILED" on a South African ship carrying coal in Civitavecchia, Italy, near Rome.
