Greenpeace international the famous big one (not London greenpeace the anarchist group)

In a series of co-ordinated actions yesterday, Greenpeace, one of the most popular non-Governmental organisations with teenagers, which produces the most recycled information booklets and posters in the world, got lots of its protesters arrested.

Vandellòs 2, is a nuclear reactor outside of Tarragona in the south of Catalonia on the mediterranean coast.
At 14h00 yesterday, Greenpeace symbolically closed this nuclear station (which is unsafe) and demanded that the Zapatero government fulfill their undertaking to close it.

22 of the gurriers were arrested.

John Prescott is an engurlish man who is deputy prime minister (tanaiste) of the UK. Yesterday 8 activists of Greenpeace climbed on his roof and placed some solar panals and then hung the banner "Oi two jags, hit targets not voters".
This is a clever reference to the forthcoming general election, the fact that Mr Prescott has two big cars called "jaguars" (as favoured by lahndin gangsters) and the fact that his department hasn't reached it's targets on environmental standards. You could read more into it and make the connection, that John Prescott has indeed hit voters in the past, and his boss, Mr Blair targetted Iraq, but then you'd be a liberal.

If you want to be a gurrier as well, then it isn't as difficult as it at first appears. You don't need to be a Greenpeace volunteer or activist to hang off buildings on rope, or drop banners, but you might consider that it is handy to have a Greenpeace lawyer. You will also face the rising cost of printing up eye-catching T-shirts, but this can be arranged cheaply enough with a small collective who are willing to pass the kitty. If you do join greenpeace, remember that they will probably not ask you to hang off buildings unless you're qualified, nor will they bring you on crop thrashing exercises or saving dolphins without a degree. You might like to consider your options, it is worth however "inflitrating" greenpeace offices, and getting lists of where GMO crops are grown, that they haven't found enough qualified people to thrash, then tell your mates, who will probably help you thrash them, remember for maximum publicity - tell us (indymedia) before hand and if you like publish a page in the encyclopedia (wikipedia) about your antics and we'll telephone the local commercial press, because never forget-

It's not just about being a gurrier
No indeed, publicity will save the planet if it's budget is big enough.
