We use our big ship the Esperanza which has just been in the Southern Ocean protecting whales down there. We use the Internet a lot. We use it in terms of talking to people, telling people about our message. We also use the Internet to ask people for their ideas. So we have a website which is www.whales.greenpeace.org and that is about asking people what you think we should be doing about protecting whales, and hearing your opinions and your voices about it too. But we use all sorts of equipment too. We have whale costumes, and there are going to be whales’ costumes in Alaska. We have life jackets, and ships and all the equipment that goes with that. This green ship here is the Arctic Sunrise, that is one of our ships, and there are people lying on the ground there saying “help end whaling”. So we use a lot of dedicated and committed hard-working people on our campaigns. This photo was actually taken from our helicopter. We have a helicopter that goes on board the Esperanza and we use that for a lot of our work as well.
