Greenpeace is one of the largest and well-known organizations in the world.
Greenpeace is made up of hundreds of thousands of active people, and millions of people around the world support them and more than 3 million of them make donations.
These shots flew around the world and helped change it for the better.
The first photograph was taken by Robert Keesire in 1971, during the first Greenpeace expedition. A small group of activists, inspired by the dream of a world without war and violence, set sail from Vancouver to the island of Amchitka in Alaska, in the area where the US government was going to conduct nuclear tests.
So the small but determined crew decided to name their team: Green + Peace = Greenpeace.
Thanks to actions such as this one, it is illegal to bury radioactive waste at sea. Two huge barrels were thrown directly onto a boat with activists, it capsized, its driver, William Groiner, was seriously injured.
During this action, Greenpeace photographer Fernando Pereira died. In 1985, the crew of Greenpeace's Rainbow Warrior protested in Auckland against French nuclear tests in the Pacific. French intelligence agents blew up the ship on the eve of the action. The explosion of the ship was reported by the entire world press, the public realized the strength of those against whom Greenpeace opposed.
Thanks to the willpower of Greenpeace, Antarctica has been recognized as a nature reserve dedicated to peace and science.
The picture shows the deployment of the base of the international natural park. Greenpeace monitored the pollution of the region associated with the bases of New Zealand and the United States. So in the nesting places of penguins, they carried out construction and explosive work.
1995, Greenpeace teams block the operation of the Brent Spar platform in the North Sea to achieve a ban on the discharge of waste into the water from coastal facilities. The promotion lasted for 2 months. Due to their durability, the discharge of toxic substances into the North Sea is prohibited.
In 1982, Greenpeace secured consideration by the International Whaling Commission of a moratorium on commercial whaling, which came into force in 1986. In the photo, the activists were literally hanging on the hook of a Japanese whaling ship while the dead whale was hauled aboard. For the first time in the history of the whaling industry, whaling hunters faced opposition to their cruelty.
A small child who sits around electronic trash in China. This picture impressed the whole world. The photo helped to tell about the impact of e-waste on the lives of the local population.
The photo went around the world as an illustration of the dangers that people and nature face as a result of the work of the oil industry. In 2010, in the same China, there was an oil spill in the port city of Dalian. Everyone had to liquidate it: fishermen, local residents, firefighters, civil servants.
In this photo, workers trying to repair a submersible pump were caught in a viscous oil slick, one of them was killed.
Greenpeace's birthday is a celebration of the founding of an organization that worldwide opposes the destructive actions of mankind against ecology and nature. We will tell you how the organization, goals and principles of the participants in the "green movement" appeared, and how gardeners in Russia support it, as well as what plogging is.
Greenpeace birthday - date and history of foundation
Greenpeace was founded on September 15, 1971. It was on this day that activists protested against nuclear weapons tests conducted by the United States of America. The outrage of environmentalists was supported by two successful businessmen, who later became the curators and sponsors of the movement.
Initially, the project was a group of enthusiasts who were not indifferent to environmental problems on the planet. Given the urgency of the issue, the idea of activists was picked up by followers around the world.
Very quickly, a small organization has turned into a global company that has weight in political and economic circles. Today, Greenpeace has branches in 43 countries. They function like independent organizations, have their own charter, executive director, and staff. Each branch works to solve environmental problems within one or more countries, but they all pursue a common goal - to avoid environmental disaster and global pollution. environment.
Principles and goals of the green movement
From the first day of its foundation until 1996, the organization actively fought against the use of nuclear weapons. The result was the cessation of testing, and then received a ban on the discharge of technological waste into the sea.
Over time, the participants in the movement achieved the following goals:
- the signing of a moratorium on catching whales for commercial purposes, the organization of a reserve for mammals in the Antarctic zone;
- development by specialists from Germany of cooling systems that do not destroy the ozone layer and do not harm the environment;
- initiation of a ban on the import and cultivation of genetically modified crops in the European Union;
- overseeing numerous projects to protect natural resources.
The main principle of the company is the absence of violence in achieving goals. Volunteers draw attention to problems through peaceful actions. The founders and employees of Greenpeace position themselves as an organization outside of politics. The management does not accept funding from political parties, businessmen and state structures. The company exists only through donations from followers and members.
What to do as a gardener on September 13
The birthday of an environmental organization is a great opportunity to take personal initiative and help conservationists around the world in their own way. To do this, you can go to official promotions, which are held in many major cities Russia, or to support a local project.
Many gardeners who love and support nature in its original form are concerned about environmental issues. Therefore, today, promotions are regularly held, and even competitions in plogging - a new sport that combines running with garbage collection in a roadside forest belt.
To support the environment, it is not at all necessary to participate in mass events. It is important to pay constant attention to this, and not just one day a year:
- do not litter the surrounding area;
- sort and take out garbage in specially designated places;
- use as little chemicals as possible to feed and protect plants from insects;
- eliminate or reduce to a minimum the regular use of plastic and polyethylene.
Resting in the country on the birthday of Greenpeace, you can clean the site, plant deciduous trees in the surrounding area. In the garden on September 15, you can perform the following types of work:
- pruning shrubs and fruit trees;
- treatment of trunks with insect repellents;
- loosening of circumferential circles;
- planting seedlings of coniferous trees;
- mowing, fertilizing and aerating the lawn.
When preparing the site for winter, weeds, fallen leaves, dried tops should be removed. It is recommended to check harvested fruit trees for rotten fruit - they can become a source of infection.
Outcome
Greenpeace's birthday is a global event that matters to people who are not indifferent to the fate of our planet. This day should be devoted to nature, planting trees or sorting garbage in the country, organizing a green area or garden outside your site, or participating in social events.
Humanity is developing at a tremendous pace, and at some point it became clear that this development often occurs at the expense of those natural resources that should not suffer. We have brought a lot of harm to the environment, ecology, individual populations of animals. It became clear: this is a dead end path, which as a result will make life on the planet unbearable. To teach people to live in harmony with nature and the world, such an organization as Greenpeace arose. It is international and non-governmental. This year, on the fifteenth of September, she celebrates her forty-sixth birthday.
history of the holiday
The date of the celebration was chosen for a reason. On September 15, 1971, a significant event happened. Nuclear tests were carried out in America, and many people came out to protest. The initiators of the rally were environmentalists, but they were supported by other people, among whom were successful businessmen and famous personalities.
A relatively small stock very quickly grew into largest organization, which today is busy with issues of ecology and conservation of nature. A feature of the association is that it exists completely outside of politics and concentrates exclusively on its own tasks.
Today, not only people who are directly related to the state of the planet by virtue of their profession work in this area. A huge number of volunteers work within the community, just caring people who try to provide at least minimal assistance. different ways: from participation in promotions to financial support.
The presentation is part of a lesson with students of senior correctional classes on the topic of environmental protection. It can be used in extracurricular activities or in a class at the GPA. The main goal is the education of ecological culture.

Greenpeace ("Green World") is an international public environmental organization.
On September 15, 1971, a small group of environmentalists "declared war" (protest) against the US government, which was conducting nuclear tests on the island of Alaska. On this day, the first organized action to protect the environment was held. Thus was born the organization, which is now considered by many to be a force capable of changing the world. For their organization, activists and participants chose a name that reflected their concerns about environmental issues and the desire to see a world free of nuclear danger. Green Peace - Green World
An organization appeared in Canada in the city of Vancouver

Separate waste collection project
Baikal project (against pollution of Lake Baikal)
In 2001, a branch of Greenpeace was opened in St. Petersburg and the Clean Neva project was launched (problems with pollution of the Neva, canals and rivers of the Leningrad Region are being solved).
And also projects are being implemented: Volunteer project (Recruitment and training of volunteers who are ready to help carry out various projects of the organization on a gratuitous basis) "World Heritage" (identification and protection of unique natural complexes that are threatened by a serious negative impact of human activities.)
"Ecohouse" (Principles: install energy-saving lamps at home, insulate windows in the apartment, choose safe household chemicals, collect household waste separately and you will contribute to the common cause of protecting the environment.
There are now 3.5 million Greenpeace activists in the world. “Greenpeace has become a prominent symbol for many people around the world who do not want to put up with the pollution and destruction of the Earth.

Lesson progress
1. In stepping word. "Planet in Peril" Conversation.
Human
There are many miracles in the world
The man is the most wonderful of them all.
But he only loved himself
And nature ruined.
He couldn't understand
What nature is our Mother!
Forests are cut down, rivers are polluted ,
And we already have water in the river I do not like
Now there are no animals in the forests ,
Man is the most important of all!
He couldn't resist
This was his vice.
Why can't he
Live calmly and wisely?
protect, love, appreciate,
All nature cherish !
And now we see
Forests without birds, and land without water...
All less environment,
More and more environment.
(Victoria Kish, Natalia Osmak)
Our planet earth is in danger. It has many sore spots. This happened because people built many plants, factories. These enterprises pollute the air - it is polluted by smoke that comes out of pipes into the sky, gases from cars, waste from factories merge into rivers and pollute them.Forests are cut down, the air becomes dirtier and more harmful, animals leave or even die, plants die, people get sick.
This is how our Earth is polluted.
We all owe our life to our planet - the beautiful Earth, groaning in pain, crying out for help and, alas, remaining childishly defenseless in front of people. French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupéry remarked: “We are all passengers of the same ship named Earth. And there is simply nowhere to move from it. Our life and our future depend on us” (Accompanied by display of a globe). The health of our planet depends entirely on human activity, and only we humans should take care of it.
2. Reading with commenting on an excerpt from the ecological story “Why the whales died” from V. Tanasiychuk’s book “Ecology in Pictures”.
“I once sat on a small beach. Two boys were playing on the beach. They looked for abandoned plastic bags, inflated them and let them fly into the sea with the wind. At first, the packages floated like boats with inflated sails, and then slowly sank.
A few months passed, and I read in the papers about the trouble that happened on the distant shores. Whales began to die there. Scientists examined them and found the cause of death. Do you think they died from some terrible disease? Nothing like this. They just suffocated because their breathing holes were clogged. plastic bags or just pieces of polyethylene that the sea current brought. And I thought - but it could be those bags that the boys on the beach let through the water.
Smoke from factories, oil spilled into the sea, garbage thrown in the forest or on the beach harm nature in different ways. But every year they hurt more and more. After all, there were no such powerful factories as now. Such huge ships have never sailed the seas. And so many people, as now, have never been on Earth before.
What can we do to make our Earth not dirtier, but cleaner? So that forests and steppes, rivers and lakes remain on it, so that fish and dragonflies, butterflies and whales live on it next to us, so that our cities do not drown in garbage and garbage.
It is necessary, starting any business, to first think over and calculate it in this way. So that it does not harm nature. To do this, you need to know and follow strict environmental rules.
And guys, there is such an organization that fights the pollution of our planet. It is called "Greenpeace" (i.e. "green world").
Now I propose to have a little rest, and then we will talk about this organization.
3. Physical education minute.
We walk, we walk, we raise our hands higher,
We do not lower our heads, we breathe evenly, deeply.
(walking)
Suddenly we see from the bush
The chick fell out of the nest
(tilts)
Quietly we take a chick
And put it back
(hands up)
A sly fox looks ahead from behind a bush
We will outwit the fox
Let's run on toes.

7. Drawing posters on the theme "Take care of nature."
September 15, 1971 - the day of the first organized action of environmentalists against nuclear tests - is considered the day of creation (the day of the beginning of activity) of the international environmental organization Greenpeace (Green World).
The founder of Greenpeace is David Fraser Mac Taggart. He was called "the first warrior of the green army." Before founding Greenpeace, he did business in Canada. It was under his leadership that the campaign against French nuclear tests in the South Pacific began. 
In 1971, a small group of environmentalists "declared war" on the US government, which was conducting nuclear tests on the island of Amchitka (Alaska) - this was the first organized environmental protest. It was the members of this group, led by David Taggart, who soon came up with the idea of creating the environmental organization Greenpeace. 
David Fraser McTaggart served as the permanent president of Greenpeace from 1979 to 1991, and in recent years has been the honorary president of the organization (he died in a car accident in March 2001). 
During its existence, Greenpeace has grown from a group of enthusiasts to a powerful international environmental organization that is active around the world. The work of ecologists includes the following areas - Biodiversity Campaign; Campaign for the protection of the atmosphere; anti-nuclear campaign; Campaign on Toxic Substances. 
In its activities, Greenpeace is guided by the following principles: protest by action - organization and holding of actions that draw public attention to environmental problems and to those who are guilty of their occurrence; non-violence - all the actions of Greenpeace are the implementation of peaceful protest; independence - Greenpeace is not affiliated with any political party, does not accept donations from government organizations, commercial structures and political parties. 
The organization and its branches are financed exclusively by personal voluntary donations from supporters of the movement in the world. The main governing body is the Greenpeace Council, which consists of representatives of all the offices of the organization, which exist in more than 40 countries around the world. Among them is Greenpeace Russia, established in 1992.
