🇿🇦 South Africa – As G20 Finance Ministers meet in Cape Town, South Africa, Greenpeace activists take a stand for tax justice, demanding that the super-rich pay their fair share. With bold messages and unwavering determination, they are making sure world leaders cannot ignore the truth.

The G20 presidency emphasises Ubuntu – ‘I am because you are’ – a philosophy of interconnectedness, solidarity, and equality. Now, it’s time for leaders to uphold these values and create a fairer system that works for everyone, not just the elite few.

🇺🇸 U.S.A. – Greenpeace USA brought their message to the streets of Washington, D.C., with an ad truck around the city to highlight the growing threat to free speech and peaceful protest. The truck messages come just days before Dallas-based Energy Transfer’s $300 million lawsuit against Greenpeace USA and Greenpeace International is set to go to trial. The February 24th trial represents a blatant attempt to silence dissent and intimidate those who fight for climate justice.


Greenpeace has been a pioneer of photo activism for more than 50 years, and remains committed to bearing witness and exposing environmental injustice through the images we capture.
