DavinaDaVegan: A guest chef on Greenpeace's iconic Rainbow Warrior ship
When I had a chat with Greenpeace Malaysia in early 2018 about a possible collaboration regarding the arrival of The Rainbow Warrior in Port Klang, My heart skipped a beat.
Rainbow Warrior
The Rainbow Warrior is an undisputed icon – Synonymous with breaking boundaries and fearless campaigning, Greenpeace has sailed with the name Rainbow Warrior since 1978.
Our current sailing ship has been patrolling the world’s oceans since 2011.

After a 5-month journey across Southeast Asia, the Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior arrives at Port Klang in Selangor to raise awareness on environmental protection and to engage with local partners and supporters for a meaningful action on plastic pollution. This is the first time that the Greenpeace ship is sailing to Malaysia, a year after the international environmental NGO opened a local office in Kuala Lumpur.

Arctic Sunrise
Designed as an icebreaker, the Arctic Sunrise has witnessed the wonders of the coldest places on Earth.The Arctic Sunrise has been part of the Greenpeace fleet since 1995 when she took her first trip to the North Sea to document marine pollution by oil from offshore installations. Since then, she has been all over the planet, including the Congo, the Amazon and most recently to a three-month expedition to the Antarctic to conduct scientific research on biodiversity in the region.
