It would be better if Greenpeace worked with the oil and gas companies and the governments that support them to ensure sustainable future for the arctic- rather than standing on the sidelines waving banners- more arctic exploration is inevitable as we try and close the huge gap between production and demand for the next 30 years. Getting to a renewable future takes decades and in the meantime hydrocarbons need to be used to help bridge that gap- getting a responsible artic development programme should be something that GP wants- and should be involved in

Our history is littered with examples of how direct action is also a necessary part of protest. Would you be saying the same thing to the women's rights movement chaining themselves to the railings outside Downing St? (actually - forget that lol - of course you would!)

Its a complete nonsense to suggest that somehow we need hydrocarbons to bridge the gap - we've had an opportunity to bridge that gap for the past 30-40 years at least so its a bit idiotic to somehow say 'these things take time' - yes they do and most importantly the time has not been TAKEN!

Keep up the good work Greenpeace - the world needs you :o)

Greenpeace has shattered a culture originally hunter culture in Greenland and now it will try to prevent Greenland's chances to get an independent economy and state.
Greenland, a real go-indigenous people who Greenpeace managed to ruin a hunting culture. It is about time Greenpeace comes with options for how Greenland will become an independent state with a good economy, instead of always being destructive and against the people of Greenland. Greenland have never seen support for the hunting culture in Greenland after Greenpeace have shattered Greenland. There has never been proposals for how to recover from the economic slowdown after a Greenpeace campaign against the Greenlandic hunting culture. It is the second time Greenpeace will paralyze the Greenlandic people and economy.

Are you kidding me ! Total insanity ! Humans are DOOMED if we don't STOP are addiction to OIL.

Dear Knud,
Cairns search does in no way ensure financial development in Greenland. The time from oil is found to actual production can take place, could be up to twenty years. In this period the drillings poses a severe threat to the marine environment and the fish stocks, that Greenland today is depending on.

From each of the planned drill sites Cairn will discharge 45 tons of red listed chemicals. This is more than all of the red listed chemicals discharged from Denmark and Norway's oil drillings combined, and it is according to the Danish Environmental Research Institute (DMU) unacceptable in the long run.

Recent findings also shows that drillings in the North Sea, which are the standards the Greenland government claims to be following, harms the fish stocks. This has also been reported in the Greenland media.

Greenpeace's campaign against the Canadian commercial seal hunt unfortunately had some negative side effects on the Inuits sustainable hunt in Greenland. But this does not make damaging oil drillings, Greenland's only hope. Greenland is extremely rich on resources, and there are options that doesn't hold the same risks: Mineral production, using the melting inland ice for water energy, which can be used for producing hydrogen power for export.

To Jon Burgwald.
In my lifetime I only have experience Greenpeace as a destruktive and paralyzising organisation to the greenlandic origin and indigenous people.
Greenland have never seen support for the hunting culture in Greenland after Greenpeace have shattered Greenland. There has never been proposals frpm Greenpeaces side for how to recover from the economic slowdown after a Greenpeace campaign against the Greenlandic hunting culture. Now Greenpeace come the second time in a destruktive way and again to the greenlandic people. Greenpeace just live many families with no options to some income in a land with the highest cost of living and put the Greenland economy development 30 years back. It is the second time Greenpeace will paralyze the Greenlandic people and economy.
Greenpeace is for; Greenpeace and not for Greenland.
Where is Greenpeace in the Alcoa, the aluminium plant case in Maniitsoq, where a small and local group makes a great effort to prevent pullotion. Where is Greenpeace in the huge plans for foreign exploitation of Greenlands minerals near Nuuk?
Where was Greenpeace Maamorilik mine which saw large foreign exploitation of Greenland's minerals and which saw major pollution?
As I said, I have in my life time I only see Greenpeace as an aggressive and destructive organization against Greenland. A country with an indigenous people.
