Greenpeace is an organisation that focuses awareness on global environmental issues, such as global warming and deforestation, through direct-action campaigns. This book charts the growth of Greenpeace from a small group of activists to a multinational organisation, and assesses how successful the organisation has been in drawing attention to and addressing the most crucial worldwide threats to our planet's biodiversity and environment.
The global organisations at the centre of the 'World Watch' books are attempting to confront critical quality-of-life issues for all of humanity, not just the privileged minority. They raise awareness and challenge complacency, fight for causes and influence the decisions and actions of politicians and industrialists. The books provide an insight into the aims and methods of each organisation and discuss the complex problems each is trying to address.
