They are so offended!
Yet they ran a highway through one of the largest images - causing great damage and cutting it in two..
They didn't know at the time when it was built during the 1920s. Especially given that many of the lines are only visible in the air. You can imagine that not many flights were going through Peru at the time, and knowledge that they were even there during the time was very limited.
The highway was created in the 1920s the Nasca lines were acknowledged during the 1940s... you see things like this in italy.
Greenpeace's work is admirable but they have to understand that their protest have to be consistent. You can not compromise a cultural heritage because you think your interest is more important. Acting in this way is behave like politicians and industries that do nothing to improve our Planet and save an irreversible climate change!
"'ooops' I am sorry" = intention of crime.
This is no silly act like 'ooops' This is a msg to someone up there, because the war against them we won, and we are waiting for them. JAIL FOR GREEN PEACE AND PUBLIC STATEMENT OF STUPIDITY. This is irreversible damage against a sacred place in its image. I hope someone takes all their money away, and dont call them animals for we are insulting animals.
“A slap in the face at everything Peruvians consider sacred.”
Is that a true statement made by someone of honour and integrity
representing the consensus-view of an entire nation?
or simply fatuous inflammatory opportunistic rhetoric by some otherwise-unemployable
suit munching on the public trough for personal/political/commercial purposes?
I don't know - perhaps others do...
I agree that tactically this particular Greenpeace stunt was stupid and ill-advised
based on its disrespecting a sensitive and precious world heritage site.
Locating the banner a few hundred metres, even a couple of kilometres away
would have been just as effective - given that the Nasca-site and surrounding area would be observed from the air by hundreds of professional chairwarmers and decision-avoiders, and corporate panderers flying in for just another expense-account junket...
Oh, and probably a few people who are genuinely committed to addressing the serious problems and have to endure the burdens of the dead-weight and actively harmful lot - like Steve-baby Harmer and Tony (Bud) Abbott
The very premise that the focus, attention , and concentration of the delegates who are bound by oaths, duty-of-care obligations, and contracts to do their best to work on ever-more critical problems could be diverted and diffused by some peripheral external event, and then blame assigned to those event-perpetrators is truly pathetic and depressing.
To anyone who remotely supports or aligns with such a premise: "I fart in your general direction, you non-creative garbage, sitting on your loathesome spotty behinds not caring a tinkers cuss for the Earth, while spewing your philistine pig-ignorance"!
(acknowledgements to M.P. Britain's highest cultural achievement, and a partial compensation for the general malignancy that was the "empire on which the sun never sets" on which the sun is ever more setting)

So then, they have issues regarding nature, so they are not allowed to hold the organization responsible who damaged a world heritage sight?
Hmmkay.
Done damage, what nonsense
Greenpeace knew what they were doing! "The Planet is more important than some Rock Scratchings"...
Unfortunatelly, they did not save the planet. The *only* thing they did here, is damage to a world cultural heritage. Not more, not less.
Yeah, that will get you somewhere...
-.-
*****
Maybe heritage for you is a complex word that means nothing. But nobody would enter to your house and destroy your father or mother things just to give an advertisement more "impact". Why didn't do that in the city? because the heritage have great value for humanity! Finally, I think these people have good intentions but are so stupid.
Chaotic action is better than orderly inaction...
***** That's not the point. What is the reason for damaging a world cultural heritage and why can't Greenpeace send their message without?
Ask yourself...
***** close minded lol u my friend should read what u write because ur talking about ur self
rubbish
