Greenpeace is a big international business. You can probably guess who supports them. Check out the link below -- this excerpt provides the highlights. I'm pretty smug about the part I've put in bold.

"Greenpeace is the largest environmental organization in the world, with an international membership of over 3 million and offices in over 40 countries. Forbes magazine once described it as “a skillfully managed business” with full command of “the tools of direct mail and image manipulation — and tactics that would bring instant condemnation if practiced by a for-profit corporation.” But Greenpeace has escaped public censure by hiding behind the mask of its “non-profit” status and its U.S. tax exemption. In other countries, however, Greenpeace has not been as lucky: Both Canada and New Zealand have revoked the organization’s non-profit status, noting that the group’s overly politicized agenda no longer has any “public benefit.

The french took car of them in auckland on 10 July 1985
The sinking of the Rainbow Warrior, codenamed Opération Satanique,[1] was an operation by the “action” branch of the French foreign intelligence services, the Direction Générale de la Sécurité Extérieure (DGSE), carried out on 10 July 1985. During the operation, two operatives sank the flagship of the Greenpeace fleet, the Rainbow Warrior in the port of Auckland, New Zealand. The French government wanted to prevent the ship from interfering with a planned nuclear test in Moruroa. They sank it near Matauri bay been there it’s a beautiful place for a ship to die.

A man working at a Greenpeace workshop in Auckland has been taken to hospital with severe burns after sparks from an angle grinder caused fuel to explode on a boat he was working on today.

The man, understood to be a contractor, was working on the rigid-hull inflatable boat at a workshop in the Greenpeace offices in Mt Eden, central Auckland, when residual fuel at the bottom of the vessel ignited and exploded on him, Gary Lane, senior station officer at Auckland Central Fire Station, told NZPA.
