Greenpeace and their Mission


Greenpeace's cornerstone principles and core values are reflected in all their environmental campaign work, worldwide. These are what they say they do:

- We 'bear witness' to environmental destruction in a peaceful, non-violent manner.

- We use non-violent confrontation to raise the level and quality of public debate.

- In exposing threats to the environment and finding solutions we have no permanent allies or adversaries.

- We ensure our financial independence from political or commercial interests.

- We seek solutions for, and promote open, informed debate about society's environmental choices.

In developing their campaign strategies and policies they take great care to reflect their fundamental respect for democratic principles and to seek solutions that will promote global social equity.

I like what they stand for and can relate to their values. They have hundreds of volunteers helping them to take care of the environment:
