\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 USA – In response to the growing threat against free speech and peaceful protest, Greenpeace USA lit up Houston with bold projections of resistance and solidarity onto iconic city locations.

Escorted by traditional canoes, and welcomed by Marshallese singing and dancing, the arrival of the Rainbow Warrior marks a significant moment in the shared history of Greenpeace and the Marshall Islands \u2014 40 years since Greenpeace crew evacuated over 300 people from the Rongelap atoll to Mejatto island, after toxic nuclear fallout from the Castle Bravo test rendered their ancestral lands uninhabitable.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\uddf3\ud83c\uddff Aotearoa (New Zealand) – Tropical Cyclone Alfred was a major weather event that impacted Southeast Queensland and Northern New South Wales in early March 2025. It began as a tropical low in the Coral Sea on February 20 and rapidly strengthened into a Category 4 cyclone by February 27.

The cyclone brought intense rainfall, powerful winds, and widespread flooding to the affected areas. Tens of thousands of people were left without electricity, with more than 112,000 outages reported, especially in the Gold Coast region.
By March 10, the severe weather associated with Alfred had subsided, but recovery efforts are still underway. Authorities are urging residents to stay informed through official updates on the ongoing conditions and recovery efforts.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\udde9\ud83c\uddea Germany – During the political parties CDU and CSU’s preliminary talks on the coalition negotiations, Greenpeace activists draw attention to a gap in climate protection with a two-meter-high \u201cKL_MA\u201d sign in front of the Konrad Adenauer Haus. The future task of climate protection has so far been left out. The missing \u201cI\u201d in KLIMA stands for the lack of ideas and content from the negotiating partners on how the ecological modernisation of the country can be shaped in a socially just way.<\/p>\n\n
