The natural world is under violent assault from man.
The seas and rivers are being poisoned by radioactive wastes, by chemical
discharges and by the dumping of dangerous toxins and raw sewage. The air we
breathe is polluted by smoke and fumes from factories and motor vehicles; even the
rain is poisoned.
Its little wonder forests and lakes are being destroyed and everywhere wildlife is
disappearing. Yet the destruction continues.
Governments and industries throughout the world are intensifying their efforts to
extract the earth’s mineral riches and to plunder its living resources.

The great rainforests and the frozen continents alike are seriously threatened.
And this despite the warnings of the scientific community and the deep concern of
millions of ordinary people
Despite the fact, too, that we can create environmentally-clean industries,
harness the power of the sun, wind and waves for our energy needs and manage
the finite resources of the earth in a way that will safeguard our future and protect
all the rich variety of life forms which share this planet with us.
But there is still hope. The forces of destruction are being challenged across the
globe- and at the spearhead of this challenge is Greenpeace.
Wherever the environment is in danger, Greenpeace has made a stand. Its
scientific presentations and peaceful direct actions at sea and on land have shocked
governments and industries into awareness that Greenpeace will not allow the
natural world to be destroyed. Those actions, too, have won the admirations and

support of millions
Now you can strengthen the thin green line; you can make your voice heard in
defense of the living world by joining Greenpeace today. Thank God someone’s
making waves.
