Ships

365 days a year, 24 hours a day, the Greenpeace ships are at sea somewhere in the world. For nearly 50 years, Greenpeace has been sailing the world’s oceans protecting our planet and fighting for environmental justice. From obstructing nuclear tests in the Pacific, to saving the whales from Japanese harpoons in the Southern Ocean; from conducting research into the effects of climate change in the Arctic, to stopping shiploads of illegal timber leaving the Amazon; from bringing humanitarian relief to communities devastated by hurricanes to collaborating with local authorities to arrest illegal fishing operations in West Africa – our ships are fundamental to all Greenpeace campaigns.
