Follow on Google News | We need your help with Requiem for Arctic Ice: The Titanic inspired, ever evolving musical protestShell are drilling in the arctic and we need you to help try and save the arctic
Every day throughout August, different musicians will be performing the requiem outside Shell’s offices on the South Bank. But the music doesn’t stop there. Whoever you are or wherever you are in the world, you can join the protest. We Make Awesome Sh, in collaboration with Greenpeace, have created an experiential website (http://music.savethearctic.org) Each online engagement with the protest, changes a different aspect of the music. Tweet or Facebook Shell, share the page or sign the petition and you will be doing your part to save the Arctic and bringing the Requiem to a crescendo. The visualizer on the site also represents the online protest against Shell’s Arctic drilling. Shell’s fleet is currently hovering at its Arctic drill site. Everyday it’s monitoring the melting ice edge, waiting for its moment to start boring holes deep into the seabed, hoping to strike oil. Shell wants to reach new oil fields under the melting ice and extract more of the stuff that caused the melting in the first place. The extreme Arctic conditions, including giant floating ice-bergs and stormy seas, make offshore drilling extremely risky. The US administration acknowledged a 75% chance of a large oil spill (http://www.boem.gov/ Requiem for Arctic Ice is an attempt to change the hearts and minds of the people at Shell who can make the decision not to risk the Arctic's future. Change the music, change their minds, change the future of the Arctic.
