Greenpeace Slovakia stages demo at Bratislava Castle

Greenpeace Slovakia placed on Wednesday a burning model of the Earth in front of Bratislava Castle in order to draw attention to the importance of the upcoming general election in connection to the battle against climate change. According to the organisation, climate change is among the greatest threats Slovakia faces. "The longer we keep postponing necessary measures for battling climate change, the more expensive and difficult they'll become and its consequences will be even more irreversible," Greenpeace Slovakia programme head Katarina Jurikova said.
