Greenpeace History:
1969 - Mindbombs
Founding Greenpeace member and journalist Ben Metcalfe – on his own initiative, at a cost of $4,000 – placed twelve billboards around Vancouver. “If you can promote companies and products,” he told his friends, “you can promote ideas.” The billboards declared:
“Ecology? Look it up! You’re involved.”

You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.

Awesome MTR documentary now streaming online for free:

Coal River Valley, West Virginia is a community surrounded by lush mountains and a looming toxic threat. Filmed over a period of five years, ON COAL RIVER follows a former miner and his neighbors in a David-and-Goliath struggle for the future of their valley, their children, and life as they know it.
