Sun, Wind and Water Make A Break For It

In a scene reminiscent of Woody Allen's "Sleeper," up to 50 Greenpeace activists dressed as solar, wind and water power broke into a Swedish nuclear power plant to protest an upcoming vote expected to expand that country's nuclear industry after a longtime trend of phasing it out. Many activists were able to get into the plant using fire truck ladders, raising the issue of security at a place you'd think wouldn't provide easy access to anyone, never mind someone dressed pretty goofily as a wind turbine.
