  • A Greenpeace crew member holds a banner reading 'Protege Los Océanos' (Protect The Oceans) from a RHIB in the Pacific Ocean. The Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise is seen in the background with a banner that reads: 'Los Oceanos Son Vida' (Oceans Are Life). The Arctic Sunrise is on a six-week expedition around the Galápagos islands, with scientists from the Jocotoco Conservation Foundation, the Charles Darwin Foundation, the Galápagos Science Center, MigraMar and Galápagos park rangers. The expedition will showcase the power of marine protection by documenting the success of the Galápagos Marine Reserve through the incredible wildlife and habitats of the sea near the Galápagos. Data collected during the expedition will help to make the case for a new high seas protected area.
