Challenges we face together

The world faces many issues: rising sea levels, more extreme weather events, loss of biodiversity and social injustice. But together, we can overcome these challenges.

Issues we’re working on

Greenpeace’s mission is to create a green and peaceful future. We know we can achieve change when we all work together.

The issues that Greenpeace campaigns on will help ensure Earth’s ability to sustain life in all its diversity. Learn more about what Greenpeace is doing to protect our natural world for future generations, and how you can get involved.

How Greenpeace creates change

Through action, Greenpeace aims to spark systemic change. That means large-scale change that will fix the root causes of issues, not just the symptoms. To do that, Greenpeace uses the following approaches:

• Investigations – Greenpeace investigates and exposes governments or corporations who cause environmental damage
• Lobbying – Greenpeace encourages and persuades those in positions of power to take the bold steps needed to stand up to corporate influence and protect the planet
• Direct Action – Greenpeace activists peacefully protest environmental injustice 
• People Power – Greenpeace helps people send a message to decision-makers and enables people to come together and demand change
• Science – Science and research guides all of Greenpeace’s work. Facts and peer-reviewed research form Greenpeace projects and policies.

Usually, Greenpeace campaigns involve a combination of all of these tactics.
