Eco-mob Extinction Rebellion protested against the arrival of a mega cruise ship in Ibiza yesterday.<\/p>\n
Members of the group turned up to the Port of Ibiza dressed up in a make-shift outfit, resembling a cruise liner. The outfit, appearing more like a children\u2019s craft project, was part of a protest against alleged greenwashing.<\/p>\n
They wore long paper hats with tin foil protruding to resemble the cruise chimneys pumping out emissions.<\/p>\n
The group claims cruise companies are promoting environmental policies while “polluting more than ever”.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, 11,000 budding tourists from the ship flooded the streets of the party island.<\/p>\n
Don’t miss… <\/strong> It comes less than a week after the eco-warriors targeted a superyacht in Ibiza.<\/p>\n Scientists Rebellion, an offshoot of Extinction Rebellion, painted the superyacht in Barcelona\u2019s Marina Port Vell last Friday, in protest against an “unsustainable lifestyle for the planet”.<\/p>\n They sprayed biodegradable red paint onto the yacht. They claimed the vessel is owned by Nancy Walton, heiress of the family that owns Walmart, before revealing a banner reading: “Billionaires should not exist”.<\/p>\n In a statement, the protest group warned that cruise ships emit huge amounts of gases that are highly polluting and harmful to health.<\/p>\n They also pointed out that cruise ships in Europe emitted a higher amount of sulphur in 2022 than a billion vehicles.<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
