    Greenpeace is an international group that works to protect the environment. It is not a government and not the United Nations. Its members are known for going out and doing something public, not only writing reports: they take their own boats to try to stop nuclear-weapon tests, to stop companies pouring poison into the sea, and to try to stop the killing of whales and other sea animals.
