Norway to drill Arctic oil

Norwegian oil companies have been given the all clear by the Oslo District court to drill on Arctic land despite protests.

Greenpeace NZ are describing the decision as disappointing, but still see positives in the movement to prevent future oil fracking.

Greenpeace Campaigner, Amanda Larsson said the neglection of Norway's action on the environment is unsatisfactory but adds that the move away from heavy petrol consuming vehicles will shed new light on a safer environment.

95bFM reporter Mark Casson speaks to Larson about her thoughts on the issue.
