London, UK. 2 February, 2026. Climate activists from Fossil Free London stage a theatrical protest, pouring fake oil on three women dressed in red, outside the office of Norwegian oil company Equinor against proposed development of the Rosebank oil field. The project, they say, would threaten both emission targets and marine ecosystems. A decision about Rosebank, which sits off the coast of Scotland and is the largest unexploited oil field in the UK, is expected from government soon. © Ron Fassbender
