马丁·维尼斯给兵马俑戴上写有CO2的口罩
http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_4c5f091801000ao5.html
2007年10月,在伦敦中国兵马俑展览上,一个环保抗议者将反污染口罩戴到至少两个兵马俑武士的头上,以此强调中国的污染记录。
自上月起英国博物馆展出了约二十具来自中国的兵马俑。这些兵马俑是具有两千多年历史的珍贵文物。抗议者是马丁·维尼斯(Martin Wyness)在英国博物馆跨越栏杆将标有“二氧化碳排放污染”字样的口罩戴到兵马俑头上。马丁·维尼斯说,他这么做是为了他的两个孩子,他十分担心全球对气候变化无动于衷,特别是中国的所作所为。
49岁的马丁在同他两个女儿去英国博物馆参观时进行上述抗议,之后他被保安拖走。目击者阿米莉亚说,她看到一名男子爬过栏杆,这名男子十分冷静,没有闹什么动静。在场的保安根本不知道发生了什么。
她说,保安在得到公众提醒后才发现兵马俑被戴上了口罩。两名保安冲过来将抗议者马丁·维尼斯架走。马丁·维尼斯能够对兵马俑造成损害,但是他只是给兵马俑戴了口罩。
兵马俑在伦敦展览的随行中国官员正在检查兵马俑的状况。抗议者马丁·维尼斯被终身禁止进入英国博物馆。
附英国人的回复,认可这种做法:
I'm sure Martin Wyness is as much of acontributor than most of us. Climate change is just another tax,any changes have been happening naturally for many years, and willcontinue after we have gone.

Well...I had no idea he was doingthat. Martin is my brother and always surprises me with what he hasto do to get the message across. I am seriously proud of histongue-in-cheek protest and can assure you his actions can onlycome from the best possible place.

Albert, for someone who lives in alow-lying coastal city like Aberdeen, your dismissive optimism willprove your undoing. Climate change can and is being changed andmeasured in timescales much less than millenia - it's happeningright now. You're right about one thing, though - CO2 is not thesole cause of climate change - methane is muchworse.
- Austen, London
China emits around 3 tonnes of CO2 perperson, per year. This is nothing compared to Qatar, who emit over60 tonnes per person, per year.
China's biggest problemis their vast population aspiring to a Western lifestyle. Thedeveloped world have created and inspired that.
Theworld's greatest problem is out of control population growthmeeting ever increasing consumption. Too many people consuming toomuch stuff. More for more.
The economic system is asubset of the eco system. We must always remember that and wake upto the fact that we can't afford to take more than isavailable.
Right now, as a global species, we arecompletely unsustainable, akin to cancer cells multiplying anddestroying, at an ever increasing rate.

Well done to Martin for making thisvery visible protest. Governments around the world are notoriouslycomplacent about enacting measures to combat climate change. Soonwe will all face the 'terror' of resource down-turn due to rapidclimate change, and we will all be quite literally fighting overfood. It will make fighting present day 'terrorism' seem a veryhollow cause indeed. Governments are pledged (more-or-less) tototal inaction, despite the award of the Nobel Peace Prize to AlGore recently. It is up to us all, as individuals, to electpoliticians who don't just speak a load of meaningless rhetoricabout climate change and then do nothing (e.g. Blair's -now underBrown- is widening the M6 leading to further more rapid CO2emissions). In conclusion, this was a very worthy protest, andbadly needed.

I totally agree with Albert, and atthe same time acknowledge China is a problem. This thing I wonderis whether Mr Wyness is doing anything about his own CO2 emissionsor trying to get his own country to do something about it? TheChinese believe it or not actually have very sound and goodenvironmental policies, their problems are with implementation. Andwho can blame them, if you were offered a better life than you oryour parents have had for the past 50 years I think you'd be tryingto make your buck. You see the Chinese are also concerned aboutcreating a better future for their children and families. Yes theyneed to raise awareness but it is hard when even the US won't doanything.
Isuggest anyone else who wants to get on the blame China bandwagonthings about what's going on in their own backyardfirst.

More Facts:
Climate change can only reliably be measured in millennia, takethe last ice age as an example.
Throughout earth historythere have been many "hot" periods. Some at least due to CO2 fromvolcanic eruptions. When dinosaurs roamed the planet the averagetemperature was much higher then it is today with no polar ice capsand yet life flourished.
Climate change is notdue soley to CO2.
So it's all right for the developednations to pollute the planet so long as we acknowledge it. Enoughof the doom and gloom.

FACTS:
1.The amount of greenhouse gases inour atmosphere are one of the factors that make our planethabitable or inhabitable.
2.The warming effect of these gasesis huge - 280parts per million results in the average temperatureof the planet being about 14C (30C warmer than it would be if itwas 0ppm.)
3.Inthe last 150 years we have added another 100parts per million tothe atmosphere.
4.Every year we add another 2-3ppm.
5.The average temperature has risen(0.8C) and will continue to rise.
6.the effects of this could be veryharmful- we are gambling with whether our planet will be habitableor not.
7.Wake upto this truth. Is it fair on your children to gamble with theirfuture in this way?

Well done to Mr. Wyness for carryingout a peaceful non-destructive protest action to draw people'sattention to a serious issue. This is almost art, not protest!True, the USA is a far greater polluter, but China's pollutionemissions are increasing rapidly are almost unregulated in manyareas.
- Karlos, London,UK
What a twat! Serves him right to bebanned for life. Silly man.
- Katrina,Berlin, Germany
That only goes to show how ignorant MrWyness is as the USA is by far the biggest polluter on the planet,especially when measured per capita. They are also the ones withthe greatest infulence so may Mr Wyness would be better off puttinga mask over Ronald McDonald.
