Greenpeace


I


Living in the Faroe Islands means that you have experienced Greenpeace in action.

It also means that your opinion regarding Greenpeace is not as positive as it

might have been, without the influence of your fellow countrymen. “Credit,

where credit's due”. Greenpeace has done a magnificent work when it comes to

preserving our environment, even though their methods are questionable and

sometimes rude and immoral. From Greenpeaces campaigns against the Faroe

Islands, where pilot whale hunting has been the subject, we know them and their

methods of argumentation to be detestable. Pictures and video-recordings were

manipulated with and information, that we can only laugh at, were feeded to the

public. The questionable procedures that have been used in the campaigns against

the Faroe Islands however is not a general perspective of Greenpeace and their

actions. But the keyword for Greenpeace and what is common for almost every

venture that Greenpeace takes, is that they are active. Greenpeace does not

believe in bureaucracy, and is that something that we should respect. Taking on

a action for Greenpeace sometimes means that you have to break the law or at

least bend it a little. In USA where they protested against some factories

which deliberately lead their toxic waste to lakes nearby, Greenpeace sealed the

pipes, from which the toxic waste was coming from and furtermore the activists

refused to leave. A up-to-date example could be Mururoa, where the French

government held a series of underground nuclear tests and banned all nearby

sailing activities meanwhile. Greenpeace had no hesitation, sailed right to

Mururoa and stayed there until they were forced to leave by a commando squad.

Even though straight on action, seems to be their game, Greenpeace also has it's

own research center, from where the ozone-friendly refrigerators was designed.

But ‘direct action' is still what Greenpeace stands for. One could say that in a

world where bureaucracy blooms and people do not seem to care - Greenpeace is

the rebel.
