What does Greenpeace do to help Antarctica?

Greenpeace's work in Antarctica

Greenpeace has been working to protect Antarctica for over 30 years. We believe that Antarctica is a unique and fragile ecosystem that must be protected from the threats of climate change, overfishing, and pollution.

Our work in Antarctica includes:

* Campaigning for the creation of a marine protected area (MPA) in the Antarctic Ocean. An MPA would protect Antarctica's waters and wildlife from the threats of fishing, pollution, and climate change.

* Working to reduce the impact of climate change on Antarctica. We are working to raise awareness of the impacts of climate change on Antarctica and to promote policies that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

* Protecting Antarctica's wildlife. We are working to protect Antarctica's wildlife, including whales, seals, and penguins, from the threats of hunting, pollution, and climate change.

* Cleaning up pollution in Antarctica. We are working to clean up pollution in Antarctica, including abandoned whaling stations and fuel spills.

Greenpeace is committed to protecting Antarctica for future generations. We believe that Antarctica is a unique and fragile ecosystem that must be preserved for the benefit of all.

Here are some specific examples of Greenpeace's work in Antarctica:

* In 1991, Greenpeace launched a campaign to stop Japanese whalers from killing minke whales in the Antarctic Ocean. The campaign was successful, and the Japanese government agreed to stop whaling in the Antarctic.

* In 2002, Greenpeace launched a campaign to stop the United States government from conducting military exercises in Antarctica. The campaign was successful, and the United States government agreed to stop military exercises in Antarctica.

* In 2010, Greenpeace launched a campaign to create a marine protected area (MPA) in the Antarctic Ocean. The campaign is ongoing, and Greenpeace is working to build international support for an MPA.

Greenpeace is proud of its work to protect Antarctica. We are committed to continuing our work to protect Antarctica for future generations.
