Greenpeace was founded in 1971 by a group of activists, including Dorothy Stowe, Jim Bohlen, Irving Stowe, and others, in Vancouver, Canada. The organization was established to oppose nuclear testing and promote environmental protection, emerging from concerns about the impact of nuclear war and the desire to safeguard the planet's ecosystems. The founders aimed to raise awareness and mobilize public support for environmental issues through direct action and nonviolent protest.
