Greenpeace gegen ShellGreenpeace Versus Shell
Soon after the multinational Shell oil company’s public announcement on June 20, 1995, that it would not sink the Brent Spar drilling platform "on account of overwhelming public opposition,” the Greenpeace campaign against the sinking, which had become legendary, was referred to in terms of superlatives. It was denounced as a case of mass hysteria or praised as a victory of civil protest against an immoral industry; criticized as a case of media hype or hailed as proof of consumer power in an age of true ecological awareness; feared as a threat to democracy or welcomed as a proof of true grassroots democracy. A new power had appeared on the world stage: consumer power.
