La Manga Under Water
Friday, June 13, 2008 @ 3:14 PM

It seems Greenpeace are under threat of being sued for an image they published showing how they see La Manga del Mar Menor, an area in Murcia, to be in the future because of climate change.

Local developers are furious and and owners at La Manga are panic-sellilng.

Here is La Manga now:

Here is La Manga accordingly to Greenpeace in the future:

La Manga in the future

The comment from Greenpeace:

"We will continue to campaign against climate change, because time is running out for taking measures to prevent La Manga from becoming submerged," said Mario Rodríguez, Greenpeace's campaigns director in Spain. "To try to solve specific problems by attacking the messenger, whose only aim is to defend the environment, is a wrong strategy, as well as being unworthy and unfair."

I didn't consider buying in La Manga when I moved here three years ago because it is obvious what effects global warming would have on the area. If people are shocked by the Greenpeace photograph then they must have had their heads buried in the sand for many years.

Our garage already looks like that every time it rains - can we sue Greenpeace?!
