Greenpeace take action against controversial tuna vessel
Action carried out by activists from the Greenpeace ship Esperanza during their Indian Ocean tuna tour. Activists monitored and took direct action at sea against the controversial vessel Explorer II, thought to habitually use some 80 high-powered lights to aggregate fish in a potential breach of marine regulations. After initially asking the Explorer II to halt this practice Greenpeace took direct action and used pole-mounted paint spray-guns to black out the lights. The day following the Greenpeace action the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission ruled that use of these lights in fishing would be banned.

Will world leaders go the distance for a Global Plastics Treaty?
If you're watching the Olympics, you should know that another race is being played out and we're in the final stretch. 🏁
The fifth and final round of #PlasticsTreaty talks begin in Busan, Korea in November and it’s going to be down to the wire.
We need world leaders to go the distance and fight back against the oil and plastic industry to deliver a strong treaty that cuts plastic production for people, planet, and climate.

Script:
In 1971 I helped found an environmental group in the basement of a Unitarian church in Vancouver, Canada. Fifteen years later, it had grown into an international powerhouse. We were making headlines every month. I was famous. And then I walked out the door.
The mission, once noble, had become corrupted -- political agendas and fear mongering trumped science and truth. Here's how it happened.
When I was studying for my PhD in ecology at the University of British Columbia, I joined a small activist group called the Don't Make a Wave Committee. It was the height of the Cold War; the Vietnam War was raging. I became radicalized by these realities and by the emerging consciousness of the environment.
The mission of the Don't Make a Wave Committee was to launch an ocean-going campaign against US hydrogen bomb testing in Alaska, a symbol of our opposition to nuclear war. As one of our early meetings was breaking up, someone said, "Peace," A reply came, "Why don't we make it a green peace," and a new movement was born.
Green was for the environment and peace was for the people. We named our boat "The Greenpeace" and I joined the 12-person crew for a voyage of protest.
We didn't stop that H-bomb test but it was the last hydrogen bomb the United States ever detonated. We had won a major victory.
In 1975, Greenpeace took a sharp turn away from our anti-nuclear efforts and set out to Save the Whales, sailing the high seas to confront Russian and Japanese whalers. The footage we shot -- young protesters positioned between harpoons and fleeing whales -- was shown on TV around the world. Public donations poured in. By the early 1980s we were campaigning against toxic waste, air pollution, trophy hunting, and the live capture of orca whales.
But I began to feel uncomfortable with the course my fellow directors were taking. I found myself the only one of six international directors with a formal science background. We were now tackling subjects that involved complex issues of toxicology, chemistry, and human health. You don't need a PhD in marine biology to know it's a good thing to save whales from extinction. But when you're analyzing which chemicals to ban, you need to know some science. And the first lesson of ecology is that we are all interconnected. Humans are part of nature, not separate from it. Many other species, disease agents and their carriers, for example, are our enemies and we have the moral obligation to protect human beings from these enemies. Biodiversity is not always our friend.
I had noticed something else. As we grew into an international organization with over $100 million a year coming in, a big change in attitude had occurred. The "peace" in Greenpeace had faded away. Only the "green" part seemed to matter now. Humans, to use Greenpeace language, had become "the enemies of the Earth." Putting an end to industrial growth and banning many useful technologies and chemicals became common themes of the movement. Science and logic no longer held sway. Sensationalism, misinformation, and fear were what we used to promote our campaigns.

In 1971 I helped found an environmental group in the basement of a Unitarian church in Vancouver, Canada. Fifteen years later, it had grown into an international powerhouse. We were making headlines every month. I was famous. And then I walked out the door.
The mission, once noble, had become corrupted -- political agendas and fear mongering trumped science and truth. Here's how it happened.
When I was studying for my PhD in ecology at the University of British Columbia, I joined a small activist group called the Don't Make a Wave Committee. It was the height of the Cold War; the Vietnam War was raging. I became radicalized by these realities and by the emerging consciousness of the environment.

By the early 1980s we were campaigning against toxic waste, air pollution, trophy hunting, and the live capture of orca whales.
But I began to feel uncomfortable with the course my fellow directors were taking. I found myself the only one of six international directors with a formal science background. We were now tackling subjects that involved complex issues of toxicology, chemistry, and human health. You don't need a PhD in marine biology to know it's a good thing to save whales from extinction. But when you're analyzing which chemicals to ban, you need to know some science. And the first lesson of ecology is that we are all interconnected. Humans are part of nature, not separate from it. Many other species, disease agents and their carriers, for example, are our enemies and we have the moral obligation to protect human beings from these enemies. Biodiversity is not always our friend.
I had noticed something else. As we grew into an international organization with over $100 million a year coming in, a big change in attitude had occurred. The "peace" in Greenpeace had faded away. Only the "green" part seemed to matter now. Humans, to use Greenpeace language, had become "the enemies of the Earth." Putting an end to industrial growth and banning many useful technologies and chemicals became common themes of the movement. Science and logic no longer held sway. Sensationalism, misinformation, and fear were what we used to promote our campaigns.

What does it mean to resist? What does it mean to know we all have the power to transform this world into a place of sustainability, equity and justice? What does it mean to believe in a brighter, greener, more peaceful future?
What does it mean to be Greenpeace?
Aardman and Greenpeace have today launched a powerful animated film to highlight the plight of the world’s oceans. Turtle Journey, directed by Aardman’s Gavin Strange, tells the heartbreaking story of a turtle family heading home through an ocean that is under increasing pressure from climate change, plastic pollution, oil drilling and overfishing. Characters in the film are voiced by Academy Award®- winning actors Olivia Colman and Dame Helen Mirren, along with Game of Thrones’ Bella Ramsey, Stranger Things’ David Harbour, Downton Abbey’s Jim Carter, and comedian Ahir Shah.

UPDATE: Great news! LEGO has announced it will not renew its contract with Shell. This is a massive victory for over 1 million Arctic Defenders globally. But Shell is still trying to drill for oil in the Arctic. Click here to demand permanent protection for the home of the polar bears: http://grnpc.org/IgHEe

We love LEGO. You love LEGO. Everyone loves LEGO.
But when LEGO's halo effect is being used to sell propaganda to children, especially by an unethical corporation who are busy destroying the natural world our children will inherit, we have to do something.
Children's imaginations are an unspoilt wilderness. Help us stop Shell polluting them by telling LEGO to stop selling Shell-branded bricks and kits today.
Greenpeace is calling on LEGO to end its partnership with Shell to Save the Arctic.
Action carried out by activists from the Greenpeace ship Esperanza during their Indian Ocean tuna tour. Activists monitored and took direct action at sea against the controversial vessel Explorer II, thought to habitually use some 80 high-powered lights to aggregate fish in a potential breach of marine regulations. After initially asking the Explorer II to halt this practice Greenpeace took direct action and used pole-mounted paint spray-guns to black out the lights. The day following the Greenpeace action the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission ruled that use of these lights in fishing would be banned.

@greenpeace -will world leaders go the distance for a Global Plastics Treaty?
Greenpeace urges world leaders to go the distance by committing to a Global Plastics Treaty that will cut plastic production and end single-use plastic.
#marketingwithsharryy #education #finance #personalfinance #business
If you're watching the Olympics, you should know that another race is being played out and we're in the final stretch. 🏁
The fifth and final round of #PlasticsTreaty talks begin in Busan, Korea in November and it’s going to be down to the wire.
We need world leaders to go the distance and fight back against the oil and plastic industry to deliver a strong treaty that cuts plastic production for people, planet, and climate.
