Half a million have signed. And you?

Hi urvashi,

Shots fired so close they felt the splash in the water. Knives bared to slash their rubber boats. Russian special forces storming their ship from a helicopter. Five days secluded at sea under armed guard. And now, two months of detention in Russian jails. All for a peaceful protest to protect the Arctic.

urvashi, It’s now been 13 days that our activists are detained in Russia.

Please click here to email your Russian embassy demanding their immediate release.

Now our brave activists and crew, along with two freelancers that accompanied them, are to be held without charge for two months pending an investigation into potential piracy charges - an unfounded accusation that even Russian President Putin has dismissed.

Greenpeace is holding a Global Day of Solidarity on the 5th of October when the whole world will stand in solidarity with the Greenpeace activists. Your support is crucial!

urvashi, are you in? Send a message to your Russian embassy now.

This moment is critical. The time is now to raise our voices to protect the Arctic, to speak out for those who are being silenced by the authorities for protesting against the destruction of our planet, and to stand up against the collusion of governments and companies in crimes against our future.

Thanks!
