Greenpeace activists occupy the Prezioso offshore oil rig operated by the Italian oil company ENI in the Sicilian Channel. The activists unfurl a 120 meter square banner depicting the Italian Prime Minister, Matteo Renzi, with a satirical message promising Piu Trivelle per Tutti (More Offshore Drilling For Everybody) and Greenpeaces demand to Stop Fossil Go Renewable . Another small banner reads “Sblocca Trivelle = Affonda Italia” (Oil Drilling On = Drowning Italy).
Greenpeace is protesting against an Italian governmental decree that offers incentives for offshore drilling and asks Prime Minister Renzi to promote ambitious EU renewable energy targets at a meeting on the 23th and 24th of October.
