What can you do?

Everything that Greenpeace does is only possible because of the support from people. 15,000 volunteers worldwide help to do everything from licking envelopes to climbing smokestacks. People like you are the ones who make the change happen. Fragile Arctic need action, and with your support, the reality can be changed. It's time to raise your voice against the oil drilling and save the Arctic!

So, what can you do to join the global movement?


1. Stand with the Arctic 30, write to your local Russian embassy! These brave men and women are still accused of hooliganism, and could spend years in prison if convicted for a crime they did not commit. Help to keep Russian embassies' inboxes flooded with messages of support for the the Arctic 30Every letter is counted and every letter counts!


2. 
Sign the petition, call on Canada to do the right thing, make your voice heard! The next power grab is about to happen at the Arctic Council (an international body representing all Arctic nations). The Arctic Council's new chair, Canada, has a choice: allow Shell and other companies to drill, spill and destroy OR uphold the Council's environmental agenda and protect the Arctic. 

3. You can get involved in protection of Arctic in many ways, whichever feels closer to your heart. Donate, run your own campaign, help to recruit, volunteer. To find out more, you'll want to talk to your local Greenpeace office. If you live in the Netherlands and would like to volunteer at Greenpeace's International headquarters, have a look here about volunteering at Greenpeace International in Amsterdam. You can also sign up as a cyberactivist
