Protestors at the London Convention meeting on ocean iron fertilization


People from the Camp for Climate Action, Rising Tide & Biofuelwatch took action against geo-engineering companies who are hoping to make a great deal of money from carbon credits by encouraging the growth of phytoplankton in the oceans. They claim this will 'sequester' carbon dioxide, a technology known as 'ocean seeding'. The campaigners held a demonstration outside a meeting of the London Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Wastes. | Rising Tide Network | http://uk.youtube.com/user/RisingTideNetwork | Global Change Channel | http://www.mlutz.net/GCC.htm
