Crew Reviews, Ratings & Info for Marvel-Swallow

In an assertive move to challenge fossil fuel dependency, Greenpeace staged two significant protests against LNG carriers originating from the USA and Russia. On March 27, 2025, eight dedicated Greenpeace activists temporarily obstructed the 'Marvel Swallow', which was transporting liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Louisiana to Zeebrugge. The protest was launched from their flagship, the 'Arctic Sunrise', where the activists encircled the carrier while brandishing banners depicting Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump alongside a provocative slogan: "Their gas your cash." Through this demonstration, Greenpeace aimed to highlight the dangers of the EU's reliance on fossil fuels, pointing to the geopolitical tensions it creates and the burden it places on households grappling with soaring energy prices. Despite the protest, the 'Marvel Swallow' successfully docked in Zeebrugge later that day. Earlier, on March 26, activists had targeted the 'Fedor Litke', which was on its way from Sabetta, Russia, reinforcing their message against fuel shipments to the EU. Greenpeace is advocating for a complete phase-out of fossil gas by 2035, emphasizing the urgent need for the EU to reduce its dependence on fossil fuels and promote sustainable energy alternatives.
