Greenpeace is the leading independent campaigning organization that uses peaceful protest and creative communication to expose global environmental problems and to promote solutions that are essential to a green and peaceful future. Greenpeace challenges the systems of power and privilege that destroy the environment and place disproportionate, burdens on vulnerable communities. Through campaigning, Greenpeace creates solutions that promote environmental sustainability rooted in social justice. Greenpeace does not solicit contributions from government or corporations, nor will the organization endorse political candidates. Their 250,000 members in the United States and 2.8 million members worldwide provide virtually all funding through individual contributions.
