Greenpeace

Greenpeace is a non-governmental environmental organization with offices in over forty countries and with an international coordinating body in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Greenpeace focuses its campaigning on worldwide issues such as global warming, deforestation, overfishing, commercial whaling and anti-nuclear issues.
Greenpeace was founded in 1971 by American immigrants in Canada and does not accept funding from governments, corporations or political parties, relying on more than 2.8 million individual supporters and foundation grants.
Greenpeace is known for its direct actions and has been described as the most visible environmental organization in the world. Greenpeace has raised environmental issues to public knowledge, and influenced both the private and the public sector. Greenpeace has also been a source of controversy; its motives and methods have received criticism and the organization's direct actions have sparked legal actions against Greenpeace activists.
Greenpeace is an independent global campaigning organization that acts to change attitudes and behaviour, to protect and conserve the environment and to promote peace by:
.Catalysing an energy revolution to address the number one threat facing our planet: climate change.
.Defending our oceans by challenging wasteful and destructive fishing, and creating a global network of marine reserves.
.Protecting the world’s oldest forests which are depended on by many animals, plants and people.
.Working for disarmament and peace by reducing dependence on finite resources and calling for the elimination of all nuclear weapons.
.Campaigning for sustainable agriculture by encouraging socially and ecologically responsible farming practices.
