The health of our oceans is closely linked to our own survival
Louisa Casson, an ocean campaigner at Greenpeace, said: “The health of our oceans is closely linked to our own survival. Unless we act now to protect them, deep-sea mining could have devastating consequences for marine life and humankind.”

5 minutes and 27 seconds. That’s how much was spent on climate during the 2016 presidential debates.
Last night’s Democratic Debate was not much of an improvement. The climate is not a “single-issue” topic — and it should be at the forefront of the conversation. bit.ly/2IukWxY
When they say…
When they say, “that’s not how things work in the real world,” we say, “not yet.”
Corporations Are Killing Our Planet

Greenpeace:
I urge you to collaborate and work with Greenpeace to phase out single-use plastic packaging and invest in alternatives to ensure that plastic from your company’s products are never found in our oceans, waterways, or coasts ever again.

Coca-Cola bottle found adrift in the garbage patch.
The crew of the Greenpeace ship MY Arctic Sunrise voyage into the Great Pacific Garbage Patch document plastics and other marine debris. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a soupy mix of plastics and microplastics, now twice the size of Texas, in the middle of the North Pacific Ocean.
Greenpeace: New oil pipelines threaten water and endangered orcas
Oil pipelines are a threat to clean drinking water and our oceans.
A proposed tar sands pipeline in Canada that would create a tanker superhighway that could drive the 76 remaining endangered Southern Resident orcas to extinction.
Expansion of tar sands oil will undermine efforts to protect the global climate, and it’s not a question of if, but when, pipelines will spill, threatening access to clean water.
Energy Transfer Partners’ Dakota Access Pipeline has already spilled four times since it was built, and a major spill would threaten the drinking water of 17 million people.
But the wave of resistance is building.
Some banks are already backing away from tar sands pipelines and Energy Transfer Partners, but each of these Dirty Dozen banks are still financially involved in some of these projects. If people around the world ask their banks to commit to NOT fund these pipelines, we can tip the balance on these toxic projects and stop these new pipelines for good.
Tell the Dirty Dozen banks not to fund pipelines that threaten our water!
Greenpeace: Less is More!
Eating more plant-based meals is not only good for your health, it’s vital for our planet. In fact, producing meat releases as many carbon emissions as all planes, trains, cars, and trucks combined. Our planet needs less meat and more plants — now, and you can help make it happen!
