Arctic Ice Storm Forces Protesters Off Oil Rig. AP, September 2, 2010. "Greenpeace says four activists have been arrested after an Arctic ice storm forced them to leave an oil rig off western Greenland where they had been squatting for two days. The organization said Thursday police were waiting for the activists on the deck of the Stena Don rig, when they climbed up. The activists had been suspended under the rig since Tuesday with rock-climbing equipment. The organization is protesting deep-water oil drilling. Scottish Cairn Energy PLC said last week it had discovered an undisclosed amount of natural gas in the area."
