And they take peaceful direct action to protect our Earth and promote solutions for a green and peaceful future.
- Greenpeace was founded in 1971 by a small group of concerned individuals, who set sail to Amchitka island off the coast of Alaska to try and stop a US nuclear weapons test. Their old fishing boat was called “The Greenpeace”. Today, Greenpeace is present in over 40 countries around the world. Their movement is growing every day and our commitment to realising our vision is as strong as ever.
