Greenpeace à l’Apple Expo de Londres - DR
Avec un stand au sein même de l’Apple Expo de Londres, Greenpeace ne désespère pas de faire germer une conscience chez le constructeur informatique. L’organisation militante écologiste, non contente d’avoir croqué la pomme en septembre dernier, s’est ingéniée à perpétuer son message au cœur même du salon de celui qu’elle a désigné comme étant un vilain petit canard. Si Greenpeace s’est correctement acquittée des frais et formalités nécessaires à la tenue d’un stand à l’Apple Expo, certaines facéties de ses représentants semblent avoir dérangé les visiteurs. Plusieurs plaintes ont incité les organisateurs à exclure Greenpeace du salon.
En effet plusieurs activistes se seraient mis à déambuler dans le salon en distribuant tracts et pommes (naturelles, sans OGM ni conservateurs). Courroucé par la méthode et le motif d’exclusion, Iza Kruszewska membre de Greenpeace, estime que : « Apple refuse de prendre en compte nos critiques sur leurs produits, pour le recyclage ainsi que pour l’utilisation de produits chimiques dangereux. Au lieu de se voiler la face, Apple devrait être un leader mondial dans l’écologie pour l’industrie électronique, et non un retardataire. »

The real reason Greenpeace was ejected from MacExpo

A few days ago we mentioned that Greenpeace had gotten kicked out of MacExpo in London and I hinted that it was the Apple Goon Squad that was responsible for their eviction. I was being cheeky, of course, as I am wont to do - but it turns out that Apple wasn't the sole complainant. In fact, it was Greenpeace's refusal to play by the rules that got them escorted out. Macworld UK has the scoop...

According to Bob Denton, Event Director, the removal of Greenpeace had nothing to do its message or the materials being handed out. Bob said: "They paid money and had the right to be at the show." The problem started when a group of 12 Greenpeace activists gathered outside the show entrance and started handing out flyers and apples to attendees. Bob Denton said: "We want people to be cool and calm as they enter the show".

He explained to the Greenpeace organisers that it would be acceptable for two activists to stand by the stairs inside the show and hand out flyers, but the event management would not allow a gathering outside the main door.

There then followed a number of complaints about the behaviour of Greenpeace activists from four visitors and five exhibitors, one of which was Apple. Allegedly, Greenpeace attendees were invading other stands for mock photo shoots and replacing other exhibitors' promotional material with their own.

The problem came to a head when one woman complained that they had placed an apple in her child's pram and were taking photographs of him without her permission.

Despite several warnings, Greenpeace continued behaving badly and after two more visitors and two more exhibitors complained later in the day, Denton ejected the activists, citing clause 13 of the terms and conditions that Greenpeace signed, which prohibits deliberate and unprovoked attempts to create conflict as well as drunk and/or abusive conduct.

So there you have it. Radical activists taking the peace out of Greenpeace.
