80 activists from 15 countries covered the stands with fishing nets, chained themselves to the stands and put up banners in 13 languages saying; 'Time and Tuna are running out'. They also stenciled the very simple "business closed" across many stands.

Not only is there no trading at all going on at the Ricardo Fuentes stand, where 30 people locked on, but trading across the fair was stopped as people flocked to the stand to see what was going on. Outside we relayed the same message to people coming into the conference.

  • Not thinking about global warming,

    Just thinking of animals, ecosystems, and nature !

    Why we need to kill all these animals to live ? Why we have to destroy ecosystems to eat ?

    But you have to agree that, when its about MONEY, we don't think humaine.

  • Yes go green and rip off people because of the lyes of global warming.

  • Your the only disease !

    Go GreenPeace, thanks for saving life in oceans

  • they sabotaged the whole expo. they look very annoying. I'm glad they were arrested. you dont create anything good by being annoying.

    I wish to steal that steve irwin ship and transform it into something USEFUL. it appears to be a very strong ship. anyone needs a mini icebreaker? or lets sell it as scrap metal and invest to eliminate poverty. its foreign investment that keeps the poor rich, not foreign aid.

  • you eat fish and you dont care? mercury is concentrated in fish. coal power plants emit mercury, it lands in water and gets into fish meat. many people get poisoned.

  • Greenpeace:disease

  • FUDS

  • wish i was there it wud have been such a laugh, unfortunatley i was on the build up of the show and pull down but flew back to england when the clients were there or green peace for that matter. Brussels is a weird country but still managed to have a whale of a time :). peace. gr8 irish bar there 2.

  • You can get the message out but you can't change laws w/out breaking laws. Civil rights, workers rights, womens right, all of these movements used illegal direct action.

  • naw, people take notice when theres drama and "lawbreaking" if they were to sit at a stand, no one would give a flying fuck to their cause. but throw in a little mayhem, and arrests, PEOPLE NOTICE!!!!
