Greenpeace Funded by the Political Class
Far-left advocacy group Greenpeace receives large donations from rich and powerful people, enough to drown the entire notion of political independence and non-partisanship. The mechanism of receiving funding – through foundations – is the same as the opposition “right wing” organizations that it criticizes for funding bias.
Greenpeace is an international conglomerate, composed of corporations in 40 countries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and the Pacific. Included among Greenpeace’s largest corporate donors are the Rockefeller brothers, Ted Turner and Jane Fonda, and the Macarthurs; as well as a long list of foundations with left-leaning gifting bias.
Since people on the left are generally unfamiliar with religious thought, my guess is that the Greenpeace propagandists are unfamiliar with the rules on casting the first stone. The group’s recent libelous attack against the Koch brothers appears to have had a dual purpose; both obviously connected to the exposure of the global warming scam.
Democrats, including Barack Obama, and politicians world-wide have invested a great deal of political capital in the scheme; pushing hard to put “global governance” in gear. Public awareness that the vast political changes along with exponentially increasing taxes have been proposed on the basis of fraud is harming their political power base.
Greenpeace also profits from smaller donors and operates “efficiently” by not paying volunteer workers. Claims of “saving the Earth” from global warming has been one of their greatest marketing tools for both fund raising and recruiting.
Their website still proclaims as a purpose of their existence: “Catalysing an energy revolution to address the number one threat facing our planet: climate change,” and has a variety of pages dedicated to global warming propaganda; including “Stop climate change,” “Climate change video FAQs,” “Take Action: Write to the oil companies,” “Cool IT Challenge,” “Take Action: Call Koch,” and “Climate blog.”
There is of course, no list of useful Greenpeace inventions or products that would be effective in achieving their stated goals; just calls for action, donations, and volunteers. Being entirely non-productive is one of the key characteristics Greenpeace uses to “grow the brand.”

Excellent article, thanks for publishing it! If environmental “problems” are ever solved, Greenpeace will go out of business!
Oh, and BTW: I think “projection” may be the right choice in context. Transference deals with transferring triggered emotions, like when something reminds you of the past. Projection is the unconscious act of denial of a person’s own attributes, thoughts, and emotions, which are then ascribed to the outside world. I see that most often in the form of people repeating what’s been said about them, as if it’s true about others. You can easily see that in a lot of political “debate.”
What I’m saying is that I think people in Greenpeace know better. Like you and me, they see the pattern. The act of projection causes confusion, and reduces political debate to he-said, she-said – “no you are” kinds of infantile arguments. Real facts and logic no longer matter, and they can continue their enterprise.
Interesting that you should mention that, DonnieH. I’ve been noticing that for a long time too, both with individuals and groups (which are composed of individuals, of course). I think, in the case of Greenpeace, they may just be intentionally lying. That’s just my opinion. There are others who have very thoughtful ways of analyzing and explaining that they’re just uneducated idiots and very flawed psychologically. But then, something has to explain their ability to maintain a large international organization. Idiot doesn’t do that. Dishonesty – criminal intent – that works.
“The common enemy of humanity is man. In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came upwith the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.”

Is that projection or transference? I can never remember the distinctions. We see a lot of projection in feminist organizations, too.
