Dam protestors hijack London eye
A group of eco-protesters breached security at the giant Millennium
Wheel in central London yesterday, climbing to the top.
The protesters claim that a dam project planned for the Narmada Valley
in India could leave more than 1m people homeless and destitute.
The Basque environmentalists also say the Itoitz dam project in Spain
will lead to the flooding of nine towns and five nature reserves.
