Certainly, a big part of our job is bringing home to people everywhere
the realities of climate change and the struggle against it. To
name names, protest corporations, shame governments - while helping
make climate change solutions a reality.
Our expeditions document the impacts of climate change on people and ecosystems. Our professional negotiators, scientists and policy experts attend world climate conferences and persuade decision makers to take action. Our volunteers and cyberactivists keep up the pressure on lawmakers and corporations. Our activists put their safety and freedom on the line for even the smallest chance to change the world.
Luckily enough, Greenpeace is itself only part of a much larger movement towards positive energy policy. We are fortunate to work with and beside many other environmental organisations, as well as many companies, governments and individuals who share our dedication, optimism and belief that there is a solution for every problem.
If you would like to be a part of this global movement, and like how we work, please choose to volunteer, sign up as a cyberactivst, and/or support us financially. For more ways to help see the Take Action page.
