Do you want an end to our reliance on dirty, deadly fuels? Do you want a world without devastating oil spills, toxic coal plants, and hazardous radioactive waste?
On October 10th, 2010, people all over the world will be joining a global work party in what could be the biggest day of climate action ever.
More than a thousand events are planned: to put up solar panels, install wind turbines, plant urban gardens, and take other action to create a green energy future.
We're teaming up with our friends at 350 and 10:10 to ask that world leaders lead by installing solar panels on their own rooftops and on their government buildings.
Add your voice here and demand our politicians roll up their own sleeves with us. If you want to join or start your own work party on October 10th,
sign up here.
25 year anniversary of Rainbow Warrior sinking
25 years ago French agents bombed and sank the Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior - killing photographer Fernando Pereira in the process.
For the past 21 years the Rainbow Warrior II continued the tradition of bearing witness and acting to protect our planet that began with the original ship - and now it is time for a new warrior. We are building the world's first purpose-built environmental campaigning ship - the Rainbow Warrior III.
Look back on the history of the Rainbow Warrior:

What the Dell?
The consumer electronics industry is making progress on eliminating the use of toxic chemicals from their products.
But, Dell was penalized in the latest Greenpeace Guide to Greener Electronics for backtracking on its commitments to eliminate toxic PVC plastic and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) from its products, despite the fact that many of its competitors have already done so.
To a green and peaceful future,
Everyone,
@Greenpeace International
