The document discusses the Arctic 30 case, where 30 environmental activists from around the world were arrested and charged with piracy after protesting against oil drilling in the Arctic. They spent 2 months in prison in Russia before most were granted bail, except for Colin Russell. The document then proposes 3 gamified solutions to raise awareness for their case and encourage people to take action by contacting their local Russian embassy.

Free The Artic 30
THE ARCTIC 30 30 men and women are accused of hooliganism in Russia for a peaceful protest against oil drilling in the fragile Arctic. After spending two months in prison, all but one of the 30 were granted release on bail. Colin Russell was refused bail, and instead given three more months of detention.
WHY THEY STAND UP 28 activists were involved in a protest against the Gazprom Arctic drilling platform Prirazlomnaya on September 18th. Two of the activists tried to climb the side of the platform to hang a banner. One day later, Russian security services descended from a helicopter onto the deck of the Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise, seized the ship at gunpoint and detained the entire crew. The activists were at the Gazprom platform because they felt compelled to bear witness to the slow, unrelenting destruction of the Arctic. As the ice is retreating, oil companies are moving north to drill for the fuels that drive that melting.
THE TREAT Colin and all of the Arctic 30 still face serious charges and could spend years in prison if convicted for a crime they did not commit.

Here people can fill up a form and send an e-mail to the local Russian Embassy as protest. Every letter is counted and each letter counts, because embassies must report back to the government.
