Greenpeace activists are calling on to halt further reliance on fossil fuels. This powerful image shows them as they protested the arrival of the attempt to offload liquefied natural gas at the Port of Brunsbüttel, Germany.

22 Greenpeace activists took part in these dramatic actions. They operate from bases in Germany, Belgium, and Poland. They arrived at the port of Brunsbüttel, Germany to protest the import of fossil fuel. They used enforcing to stop the arrival of LNG from loaded with liquefied natural gas from the USA.

How does Greenpeace ⁣address the argument ‌that LNG acts as a necessary “bridge fuel” during the transition⁣ from coal to renewable energy?

## Protesting Fossil Fuels: A‌ Conversation with Greenpeace

**Host:**‌ Joining us today is Alex Reed, a spokesperson for Greenpeace, following the​ dramatic protest against an LNG tanker arriving in Brunsbüttel, Germany. Welcome to the show, Alex Reed.

**Alex Reed:** Thank⁤ you for having me.

**Host:** The images of Greenpeace activists anchoring themselves to the “Celsius Gandhinagar” ⁣are certainly ⁢eye-catching. Can you explain what motivated this direct‍ action?

**Alex Reed:** This protest is a direct response to ⁣the continued reliance on fossil fuels like LNG. ⁣This isn’t ⁣just about one tanker; it’s about a global trend.⁣ While companies promote LNG as a ⁢”transition fuel,” it’s still a fossil fuel with significant climate impacts. We’re demanding a swift and just transition ⁢to renewable‌ energy sources.

**Host:** There‌ are arguments that while not perfect, LNG ⁢is a crucial “bridge fuel” ⁢for countries transitioning away from coal and toward renewable energy. What’s your response to that?

**Alex Reed:** We‍ believe this‌ argument is dangerously misleading. The so-called “bridge” will lock ‍us into fossil fuel infrastructure for‌ decades, hindering the necessary shift to renewables.⁢ Moreover, the lifecycle emissions associated⁤ with LNG production and transportation are substantial, contributing significantly to climate change.

**Host:** It’s‍ clear that Greenpeace is part of a growing⁤ international movement against LNG. We’ve seen‌ similar protests in [mention other relevant locations if available from web search results]. What do you ‌hope to achieve with these ⁣actions?

**Alex Reed:** We want to raise​ awareness about the dangers of LNG and put pressure on governments to prioritize truly sustainable solutions. We need bold policies ⁢that phase out‌ fossil⁤ fuels completely and accelerate the development of‌ renewable energy sources. This protest is just one step in our ongoing campaign for a sustainable future.

**Host:** Alex Reed, thank you for your time and insights.

**Alex Reed:** Thank you⁣ for‍ having ⁣me.
