Satellite data reveal massive scale of routine #oil pollution in #oceans. See the map 🚨 Oil slicks from ships and offshore oil platforms cover nearly 1.6 million square kilometers (618,000 square miles) of the ocean surface each year, an area slightly larger than the nation of Mongolia. https://news.mongabay.com/short-article/2026/10/satellite-data-reveal-massive-scale-of-routine-oil-pollution-in-oceans-see-the-map/ #pollution #Satellite #Greenpeace #nature

On the Cross-hairs of this Israeli OSINT firm: Gays and Protesters Leaked documents revealing that #CyberGlobes, a small #OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) firm based at the National Cyber Park in Beer Sheva, #Israel, helped authoritarian regimes collect intelligence on activists, dissidents, political opponents, and #LGBTQ+ individuals - without hacking any device, purely based on publicly available social media data. Client list include Saudi Arabia, UAE, Morocco, Angola, Indonesia, Bangladesh, the US, Norway, Finland, Japan, Netherlands, and Poland. Nigeria: CyberGlobes analyst Mark Leiba ran searches on participants in Nigeria's August 2024 protests against high cost of living (where 24+ were killed and 1,200+ arrested). Indonesia: The company helped Indonesian government officials identify and map LGBTQ+ community members, suggesting search keywords like "gay, drag queen, BDSM" and advising them to analyze the Facebook profiles of LGBTQ+ activists. In Indonesia, such individuals face arrest and public caning. Mozambique: After disputed 2024 elections sparked mass protests (315+ killed), CyberGlobes ran facial recognition and darknet breach searches on opposition leader Vitano Singano (later kidnapped in July 2025, fate unknown). Rwanda & Kuwait: Tracked dissident bloggers - "Robert Gakwerere" (anti-Kagame) and Fawaz al-Khuraiti (anti-Kuwaiti government). The latter lost his citizenship mid-2025. Aryeh Lightstone (#Trump advisor): CyberGlobes searched his personal email addresses and attempted to retrieve his private passwords from darknet breach databases. Environmental activists: Tracked Extinction Rebellion (Czech Republic), Greenpeace Slovenia, and nuclear regulators in the US and Canada. NSO Group partnership: CyberGlobes previously worked alongside #NSO (maker of Pegasus spyware) in combined sales - "Before you hack someone's phone, you need to know whose phone to hack." Fake accounts: The company maintained a system of fake personas/avatars to infiltrate closed Facebook groups, and purchased data from third-party sources.

Vielen Städten fehlt das Geld für nötige Investitionen. #Kommunenamlimit 🎪 #Greenpeace #Freiburg machte auf dem ZMF auf den Handlungsbedarf und Lösungen für eine faire Finanzierung aufmerksam - zum Beispiel kann eine Steuer auf sehr große Vermögen helfen, den Investitionsstau der Kommunen zu lösen. Bürger:innen konnten auf symbolische 100-Millionen-Euro-Scheine schreiben, wofür Freiburg dringend mehr Geld benötigt. 💶 Die gesammelten Wünsche werden an Oberbürgermeister Martin Horn übergeben. 🏫

Today in Labor History July 10, 1985: French intelligence committed an act of piracy and state terrorism by blowing up the Rainbow Warrior, flagship of the Greenpeace fleet, in the Port of Auckland, New Zealand. The ship was on its way to protest a French nuclear test in Moruroa. The attack killed Fernando Pereira, a photographer, who drowned as a result. France had been doing nuclear testing on Mururoa Atoll since 1966, and had intended to continue, despite the 1985 Treaty of Rarotonga, signed by Australia, the Cook Islands, Fiji, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, and other South Pacific nations, declaring the region a nuclear-free zone. The Rainbow Warrior had been active in supporting anti-whaling, anti-seal hunting, anti-nuclear testing and anti-nuclear waste dumping campaigns during the late 1970s and early 1980s. New Zealand Police captured and charged two French agents with arson, conspiracy and murder. They were sentenced to ten years in New Zealand prison. However, due to pressures from the French government, they only spent two years imprisoned on the French Polynesian island of Hao before being released. In 1987, France paid $8 million to Greenpeace in damages, which helped finance another ship, but only after considerable international pressure. Most Western leaders refused to condemn the attack. Nuclear contamination in the South Pacific is extensive. It is the result of nuclear testing by the U.S. (primarily in the Marhsall Islands, including Bikini Atoll), UK (Monte Bello Island, Australia), and France (French Polynesia) from 1946 until 1996. As a result, thousands of local indigenous populations have suffered radiation poisoning; increased rates of cancer; contaminated food supplies; forced displacement; increased rates of infertility, miscarriages, and congenital malformations; and, of course, psychological trauma. In at least one case, the U.S. completely obliterated a previously inhabited island. The U.S. conducted 105 atmospheric and underwater tests in the Marshall Islands from 1946-1962 for a total yield of 210 megatons. Castle Bravo (1954) was the largest single test. It spread fallout across several islands, include some that were currently inhabited. Residents weren’t warned or evacuated ahead of time. #workingclass #LaborHistory #terrorism #stateterror #rainbowwarrior #greenpeace #nuclear #coldwar #newzealand #bikini #marshallislands #rarotonga #polynesia

:blobthinkingeyes:  ao ler que Greenpeace critica a carencia de refuxios climáticos: Galiza non ten nin un (web de nósdiario) fun mirar o que define #greenpeace como #refuxioclimatico Qué es y cómo debe ser un verdadero refugio climático (web de #greenpeace) Son espazos creados con propósito, non aproveitados para un fin. Mais unha carballeira, un parque con frondosas, o paseo a carón dun río con vexetación autóctona... non o son, porque non cumpre criterios de accesibilidade e servizos. Amén de non garantizar que a temperatura supere determinados valores. É un concepto urbano. Baixar ata o Pozo do Boi e meter os pés na auga non conta (por dicir un lugar fresquiño). Subir ata Ortegal ou A Mariña tampouco. #refugioclimático #galiza

On April 12, the Global Sumud Flotilla sails with 70+ vessels and 1000+ participants to break Israel’s ongoing blockade of aid to #Gaza. Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise is providing operational and technical support. We stand firmly against war crimes, deliberate starvation, genocide, and ecocide. https://act.gp/4scNrSd #GlobalSumudFlotilla2026 #gsf #sumudflotilla #gaza #palestine #greenpeace #peace
