Description: From a small boat sailing into a nuclear test zone to a global force with ships on every ocean, *Greenpeace* traces how a handful of activists turned bold acts of witness into one of the world's most recognizable environmental organizations. The book follows the group's evolution from protest movement to institution, including its pioneering direct-action campaigns to save the whales, the shocking sabotage of the *Rainbow Warrior*, and the confrontations that pushed entire industries to change. It also looks inside the organization at its strategy, its internal tensions, and the science and technology behind its modern campaigns. Admirers and critics alike will find a clear-eyed account of Greenpeace's legacy and of the challenges it faces in the years ahead.
