\ud83c\uddf2\ud83c\uddfd Mexico – During the World Cup, Greenpeace Mexico activists staged a peaceful protest at Terminal 2 of Mexico City International Airport (AICM) to remind people that the climate crisis is already changing the conditions in which we live, work, and play. With the messages \u201cThe game has extra time, but the planet doesn\u2019t\u201d and \u201cIf the climate changes, the game changes,\u201d the organization drew attention to the increasingly evident impacts of climate change and the need to act urgently to prevent its effects from continuing to worsen.<\/p>\n\n


Protecting marine and terrestrial ecosystems such as the Maya Forest, as well as a sustainable and just energy transition\u2014one that no longer relies on oil and says no to fracking\u2014are the kinds of decisive changes we need in the current government\u2019s climate policy to truly help combat and curb the impacts of climate change. With the giant balloon\u2014placed in the central rotunda of the airport terminal\u2014as a backdrop, and under the gaze of dozens of domestic and international travelers, Greenpeace Mexico activists positioned themselves beneath the balloon, mimicking flames that represent the extreme heat threatening both the game and the planet.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\uddec\ud83c\udde7 UK – Signs of London underground stations are rebranded as Baking Street, London’s Burning and Hottenham Court Road during the heatwave in June  raising awareness about the climate crisis. Greenpeace activists also attached stickers saying ‘Heatwave – Brought to you by Shell’ to remind passengers that the record heat is caused by the burning of fossil fuels and the companies that promote them.

\ud83c\uddf5\ud83c\uddf1 Poland – On the eve of the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gda\u0144sk, Greenpeace appeals to the Polish government and European leaders to learn from the war in Ukraine. A crisis-resistant system based on renewable, distributed energy sources must become the foundation of energy security.<\/p>\n\n

The future of energy in Ukraine and Europe will be one of the most important topics of the Gda\u0144sk conference, which is why Greenpeace has decided to present recommendations on how to build lasting energy security at this symbolic place for peace in Europe, where the World War II started, at the Westerplatte monument.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\uddeb\ud83c\uddf7 France – Nine Greenpeace France activists are on trial before the Paris Court of Appeal.<\/p>\n\n

On March 5, 2021, they entered the tarmac at Roissy Charles de Gaulle Airport and partially repainted an airplane green. Their aim was to denounce greenwashing and the government’s lack of ambition regarding the regulation of the aviation sector to address climate challenges.<\/p>\n\n

A rally, followed by speeches, took place in front of the Paris Court of Appeal before the trial.<\/p>\n\n
