Abstract

On Monday, April 27, 2009, seven Greenpeace activists were arrested for scaling a construction crane and unfurling a gigantic banner with a picture of Earth accompanied by the caption – “Too Big to Fail.” The Greenpeace activists were calling attention to the fact that it is Planet Earth, not the large financial institutions which were bailed out, ostensibly, as “too big to fail,” that should warrant our concern.
