On September 15, 1971, the newly founded Don't Make a Wave Committee sent a chartered ship, Phyllis Cormack, renamed Greenpeace for the protest, from Vancouver to oppose United States testing of nuclear devices in Amchitka, Alaska. The Don't Make a Wave Committee subsequently adopted the name Greenpeace..

Happy 40th birthday Greenpeace. Thanks for fight for us on global warming, deforestation, overfishing, commercial whaling, anti-nuclear and many more environmental issues.
