Greenpeace, one of the world’s most respected and dynamic organizations, is
an international non-profit global campaigning organization that acts to
ensure the ability of Earth to nurture life in all its diversity. At the
heart of Greenpeace’s campaigns is the tradition of non-violent, direct
action against environmental abuse and destruction.
*Greenpeace exists because this fragile earth deserves a voice. It needs
solutions. It needs change. It needs action.*
Greenpeace is acts to change attitudes and behavior, to protect and
conserve the environment and to promote peace by:
- *Catalyzing an energy revolution* to address the number one threat
facing our planet: climate change.
- *Defending our oceans* by challenging wasteful and destructive
fishing, and creating a global network of marine reserves.
- *Protecting the world's ancient forests* and the animals, plants and
people that depend on them.
- *Creating a toxic free future* with safer alternatives to hazardous
chemicals in today's products and manufacturing.

engineered organisms, protecting biodiversity and encouraging socially
responsible farming.
Greenpeace is present in 40 countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia,
Africa and the Pacific.
To maintain our independence, Greenpeace does not accept donations from
governments or corporations but relies on contributions from individual
supporters and foundation grants.
For over 40 years, Greenpeace has been successful in our campaigns to
reverse environmental degradation by bearing witness to environmental
destruction and exposing and confronting environmental abuse. Greenpeace
campaigns have been vital in informing government policies on the
environment and effecting changes in business practices which lead to
various environmental problems.
*Greenpeace in Southeast Asia*
Greenpeace opened our first office in Southeast Asia in 2000. In that time
we have led successful campaigns throughout the region, securing fresher
air, cleaner water and a healthier environment through changing industry
practices and government policies. Greenpeace actively campaigns across the
region to catalyze an energy revolution, protect ancient forests and our
oceans, create a toxics-free future and create a shift to sustainable
agriculture.
Greenpeace has three offices in Southeast Asia—in Thailand, Indonesia and
the Philippines and each office is composed of five departments: Campaigns,
Fundraising, Communications, Mass Mobilization and Organizational
