Read moreIn 1971, motivated by the vision of a green and peaceful world, a small team of activists set sail from Vancouver, Canada, in an old fishing boat. These activists, the founders of Greenpeace, believed a few individuals could make a difference. Nowadays, Greenpeace has 2.8 million supporters worldwide and a presence in 41 countries.
In the Philippines, Greenpeace began its journey in the March 2000, driven by the same passion and commitment to environmental protection. Over the years, Greenpeace Philippines has grown into a vital force for environmental advocacy in the country, leading campaigns on climate justice, plastic pollution, and the preservation of biodiversity. Through grassroots movements, direct actions, and partnerships with local communities, Greenpeace Philippines continues to be a powerful voice for change, working tirelessly to protect the environment for future generations.
Currently, we are tackling critical issues like climate justice and advocating for a plastic-free future. With the help of communities, we work to protect biodiversity, prevent environmental abuse, and hold corporations accountable for their impact on our planet. Together, we aim to create a sustainable and just world for everyone.

I’ve realized that when we fight for the environment to achieve an “Earth for all,” we’re not just fighting for nature itself—we’re advocating for everyone, ensuring no one is left behind. Our goal is to achieve justice for those most vulnerable to natural disasters and discrimination.
The highlight of my experience at Greenpeace Philippines is learning that we stand up for what is right and just without resorting to violence. We’re here to make our planet feel like a true home for everyone.
