About Greenpeace - Greenpeace UK
Greenpeace was founded in 1971 by a small group of concerned individuals, who set sail to Amchitka island off the coast of Alaska to try and stop a US nuclear weapons test.

Our movement is growing every day and our commitment to realising our vision is as strong as ever.
