GREENPEACE BUILDS REPLICA OF NOAH'S ARK:
Environmental activists are building a replica of Noah's Ark on Mount Ararat—where the biblical vessel is said to have landed after the great flood—in an appeal for action on global warming, Greenpeace said Wednesday.

Turkish and German volunteer carpenters are making the wooden ship on the mountain in eastern Turkey, bordering Iran. The ark will be revealed in a ceremony on May 31, a day after Greenpeace activists climb the mountain and call on world leaders to take action to tackle climate change, Greenpeace said.

"Climate change is real, it's happening now and unless world leaders take urgent, decisive and far-reaching action, the next decades will see human misery on a scale not experienced in modern times," said Greenpeace activist Hilal Atici. "Those leaders have a mandate from the people ... to massively cut greenhouse gas emissions and to do it now."
Apparently this is Greenpeace's subtle way to push the Global Warming agenda by hinting that the world had better 'get on board'.

Maybe Greenpeace can 'pull a PETA' and convince Hamas to stop firing rockets into Israel in order to cut down on Global Warming emissions.
