Tape is stretched across a petrol station in Edinburgh saying "Save the Arctic" Greenpeace campaigners attempt to shut down Shell petrol station in Edinburgh just as the oil company is about to drill in the Arctic for the very first time.The environmental group intend to close a dozen stations in Edinburgh, by using the emergency shut-off switch, which stops petrol going to the pumps, and removing the fuse so it can’t immediately be turned back on again.07/16/2012
