What the coverage says

Greenpeace activists have sunk large boulders into the North Sea within a marine protected area. The Guardian reports that this action forms a "boulder barrier" designed to snag industrial dragnets and conserve porpoise populations by deterring bottom trawling. The Independent adds that the weekend deployment is part of a new initiative supported by celebrities, including Simon Pegg.
