Formally condemn Greenpeace for their actions in Peru that resulted in damage to the Nazca Lines, a World Heritage Site.

Created by C.N. on December 11, 2014

Greenpeace recently sent about 20 individuals to Peru to willfully put large banners very nearly on top of one of the Nazca Lines, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that has existed for over 1,500 years, and in their actions, damaged one of these irreplaceable sites. Their hubris and self-righteousness has resulted in damages, likely permanent, to a cultural and religious site, not only important to the Peruvian people, but to the world.

I request that the Federal Government formally condemn the organization Greenpeace for their thoughtless, destructive actions, and if at all possible, prosecute the organization and/or the individuals who carried out this act. These sites are irreplaceable and irreparable, and this group damaged them simply to make a political statement
