Greenpeace

Wikipedia

Greenpeace, originally known as the Greenpeace Foundation, was founded in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 1971 to oppose the United States testing nuclear devices in Alaska. The focus of the organization later turned to other environmental issues: whaling, bottom trawling, global warming, old growth and nuclear power.

Greenpeace has national and regional offices in many countries. It also has a large worldwide presence which is affiliated to the Amsterdam-based Greenpeace International. The global organization receives its income through the individual contributions of an estimated 2.8 million financial supporters as well as grants from charitable foundations.

Mission statement



On its official website, Greenpeace defines its mission as the following:

Greenpeace is a global campaigning organization that acts to change attitudes and behavior, to protect and conserve the environment and to promote peace by:More Greenpeace @ wikipedia
