This @CopernicusEU #Sentinel1 composite image combines hundreds of radar images acquired from 2020 to 2022 to highlight the amount of ships entering, exiting or waiting to pass through the canal:

🔵 2020
🟢 2021
🔴 2022

RT @StopCambo: We're outside of the Norwegian embassy w/ Norwegian & UK activists calling out @Equinor's climate crimes. @Equinor is Norway's *state-owned* oil giant.

While Norway portrays itself as a climate leader, they profit from @equinor opening up fossil fuel projects across the world.
