Our investigations are a fundamental part of
our campaigns. We expose those responsible for environmental crimes. We have a
global reach, we have research teams and millions of supporters in countries
around the world. This means we can investigate environmental crimes and
impacts wherever they are happening, whether it is the middle of the jungle, or
even, with the help of Rainbow Warrior and its sister ships, in the far oceans.

Janet
Cotter, from Greenpeace's Science Unit is currently on board the Esperanza on the first leg of the Arctic Under Pressure expedition.
The ship is currently in Ny-Ålesund in the arctic,
where Janet has been helping seagulls from 'contributing' to ocean
acidification research.
In my day job, I work as a
scientist as Greenpeace's Research Laboratories in Exeter, which is part of the Greenpeace's Science Unit. We might not
get do the banner hanging from bridges and all the dramatic stuff that other
Greenpeace activists do, but we have an important role in the
organisation. We analyse samples from
around the world in our laboratories, often looking for toxic contamination of
soils, rivers and seas, or sampling foodstuffs for GM contamination.

Still melting
Juliette in our international office posted this on the Climate Rescue blog and, as similar thoughts have been going through my head in response to the current cold weather, it's worth reposting here.
It cannot be said too often that climate and
weather are not the same thing. The first regulates the temperature and
weather patterns on a long term basis, the other one is guilty for
blocking the traffic with snow this morning, or making the heat today
unbearable. NASA puts it better than I could:
Weather is what conditions of the atmosphere are over a
short period of time, and climate is how the atmosphere "behaves" over
relatively long periods of time.
