The Greenpeace Podcast brings you sound-rich environmental stories that travel across borders. Engaging listeners through storytelling, this podcast builds environmental literacy in a way that inspires, amuses and empowers. Listen to monthly 15 minute episodes that break down some of today's hottest and most controversial environmental issues.Greenpeace is an independent, campaigning organisation which uses non-violent, creative confrontation to expose global environmental problems, and to force the solutions which are essential to a green and peaceful future.

I am just amazed that there are not thousands of subscribers and reviews for this. Unfortunately, too many people are uneducated and are not bothered by anything at all until it immediately effects them. So sad. You do not need to be a vegan, or even anti-hunting to support Greenpeace, you just need to open your eyes and listen to see what we are doing to this once beautiful planet.

Scary!

This program consistently delivers throught-provoking, engaging, informative information in an informative way. I look forward to each episode.
