[Greenpeace - Making Waves - recent comments] Unfortunately these kind of stories, disingenuous as they are, do serve to undermine the good efforts of groups such as Greenpeace. That is why it is so important that local groups take to the streets in their own areas to help educate and galvanise the public.

[Hot Topic] Walking the Green talk ”” Hot Topic: Leipold indicated that Greenpeace was seeking to focus more strongly on the energy solutions which are available to avoid worsening climate change. This provided Sackur with the opportunity to accuse them of avoiding the nuclear solution which some see as a necessary means of producing sufficient non-fossil energy to meet the world’s demand.  It seemed apparent that Greenpeace would not oppose nuclear energy if it really was necessary, but that’s not how they see it.  Leipold in this segment of the interview laid considerable stress on the potential of the more efficient use of energy to produce far greater savings than have yet been widely credited.

[Watts Up With That?] Greenpeace defaces Mount Rushmore « Watts Up With That?: I suspect a more likely scenario is that when warming fails to materialize, we will be faced with a barrage of public pronouncements declaring the success of all the governmental efforts in averting the climate crisis, even if the enacted programs haven’t had time or even the possibility to affect what is occurring in the climate. We had a preview of what we can expect in Obama’s recent assertion that the Stimupalooza Bill was responsible for recent improvements in the economy, even though almost none of it has actually been spent yet and the St Louis Fed was projecting an end to the recession for late this year at about the same time the Congress was voting to enact it, without taking time to actually read it, be cause the need for it was so dire.

So he wouldn’t use that word.

[Climate Progress] Greenpeace's indefensible attack on the House clean energy bill ...: Another example is that the RES introduces bad precedents that will get copied in state legislatures (subtracting CCS and nukes from the baseline, counting trash incineration as renewable, etc.) while mandating less renewable energy than we will get under business as usual. That’s why a number of people have argued that we’re better off just dropping the RES, since it adds little in the way of new energy and sets bad precedents.

[Behind the Spin] How Glasto got its mojo back : Behind the Spin: From the Orange Chill and Charge tent to the Greenpeace Police patrolling the camp sites, it is a wash of organisations communicating with a huge cross section of the population. From the hippies who have been to every festival since 1970 to families with their babies in over sized headphones to want to be rock stars or just your average music lover, organisations can have their pick of these captive audiences.

[Global Warming] The Global Warming Swindle”¦exposed By Respected Scientists: Co-founder of Greenpeace, Patrick Moore, says this: “I don’t even like to call it the environmental movement anymore cause really it is a political activist movement. (the environmental movement against global warming) has evolved into the strongest movement there is for preventing development in developing countries.”

Fans of the classic British TV comedy Blackadder will know that Baldrick's catch phrase was "I've got a cunning plan!" And indeed it seems that Greenpeace does have a cunning plan to derail the planned expansion of Heathrow Airport.

[Greenpeace UK - Forests] Palm oil companies talk while the rainforests burn | Greenpeace UK: The most obvious has been annual meeting ofthe Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) in Bali - this could have beenthe moment the industry got its act together and did something other than spin theusual load of greenwash over its involvement in the destruction of south eastAsia's rainforests. Sadly, it wasnot to be.

[Blog about knife] Blog about knife » Tactical Battle Knife: WASHINGTON, Aug 14 (IPS) - News reports and right-wing blogs have been repeating reports which claim that Muslims and Arabs are among the donors to the J Street political action committee (PAC) which lobbies American policymakers to work on a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conf .

I really don't think that the maritime courtesy of relaying your position to other ships at sea can be considered a violent act.
