His name is "Polar pedalingAnd it is a worldwide mobilization to protect the fragile and threatened ecosystem of the Arctic. 75 countries in the world will participate, including Italy, and the aim is to raise public awareness of the problem of oil drilling.

The Polar Pedaling, in our country, will cross the main points of Rome, Milan, Bari, Verona, Catania and, of course, Napoli. The cyclists "defenders of the Arctic" want to focus on the damage to the Arctic environment, which companies like Shell and Gazprom have been causing for years.

Polar pedaling Naples

In Naples we will meet on Sunday morning at 10, at Piazza del Gesù. To welcome the activists there will be the now well-known #savethearctic logo, reproduced on balloons, polar bears and masks. The goal of the Polar Pedaling will be the Naples Bike Festival and the path will be suitable for everyone, even for the little ones.

Cristiana De Lia, head of Greenpeace Italy's Mare campaign, explained that

with the Polar Pedal we want to bring the movement of the Arctic Defenders on the roads and ask the international community to declare the Arctic a global sanctuary, a region protected from any kind of industrial exploitation. Only in this way companies like Shell e Gazprom they will stop playing Russian roulette with this land of vital importance for the climate of our planet
