To expose global environmental problems and to force solutions which are essential to a green and peaceful future.

In 1971, motivated by their vision of a GREEN and PEACEful world, a small team of activists set sail from Vancouver, Canada, in an old fishing boat known as the Phyllis Cormack. Today, Greenpeace is a global organisation that prioritises campaigns that can be addressed on a global scale. Based in Amsterdam, Greenpeace has 2.65 million financial supporters worldwide, and national/regional offices in 41 countries. Greenpeace campaigns for sustainable fishing and to protect the ocean’s biodiversity, and works with local communities to oppose illegal and destructive logging and to develop eco-forestry projects in the Solomons and PNG. Greenpeace has also worked in the Pacific to eliminate toxic pollution and to prevent harmful climate change.
