Greenpeace activists spread 50-meter “No Plastic” banner in Bulgaria’s Varna

Greenpeace environmentalists have unfurled a 50-foot banner from Asparuhovo Bridge in the seaside city of Varna. The banner reading "No Plastic" aims to attract public attention and restrict the use of disposable plastic. The banner was hung by climbers. The event, involving representatives from more than 10 countries, took place simultaneously with the visit of the world-famous Rainbow Warrior ship to the Varna Port, varnautre.bg reported. Saturday and Sunday will be days of open doors so citizens of Varna and the guests of the city could see the special vessel.
