All the bad news about the environment can be overwhelming. But if we work together, we can take on the world’s worst polluters, and solve its biggest problems. This page is full of practical things you can do to help protect the environment, all designed by Greenpeace’s world-class campaign teams for maximum impact.

Our dependence on gas to heat and power our homes is not only driving up bills and wrecking our climate - it’s also funding Putin’s wars. To get off gas, the UK needs to boldly invest to insulate homes, replace boilers with heat pumps and boost ever-cheaper renewables.
While Shell’s profits skyrocket and BP’s CEO describes the company as a “cash machine”, millions are forced into fuel poverty. Tell Rishi Sunak to help ordinary people by taxing the fossil fuel companies’ mega-profits.
Bees are essential for our survival. And although bee-killing pesticides are banned, the UK government has just approved these deadly chemicals for emergency use. Tell the government to protect bees and enforce a total ban.
Tesco buys meat from companies owned by forest destroyers, and sells chicken and pork fed on soya from deforested land. Tesco customers have the power to demand change. Tell the CEO to set Tesco on the right path.
Shell wants to blast shockwaves into South Africa's whale breeding grounds as part of a new oil project. Tell their CEO it's time to back off.
While the UK government claims to be a climate leader, many of its policies are taking us in the opposite direction. Tell Boris Johnson it's time to lead by example.
Tell the energy minister to stop Cambo, a new oil project that will create as much climate pollution as 16 coal power plants running for a year. Send your message now.
Instead of propping up the oil industry, the government should support workers to move into renewable energy. Sign the petition for a fair transition away from fossil fuels.
The UK claims to be a climate leader - but the government just allowed plans for the country's first deep coal mine in 30 years to go ahead. Help put a stop to it.
Running a street stall, taking direct action, organising a speaker event or working at a festival – there are lots of ways to get involved to protect our planet (and have fun!)
Greenpeace Speakers are trained volunteers who deliver inspiring talks across the country about the challenges of protecting our planet and what people can do to help. Find and invite a Speaker here.
Leaving a gift to Greenpeace in your will is a way to ensure your beliefs live on, even after your lifetime.
Shell are claiming their customers can keep driving with no climate impact using their carbon offsetting scheme. But these claims simply don't add up. Let's hold Shell to account.
To tackle the climate emergency, Scotland's fossil fuel workers need support to transition to decent, green jobs. Tell Nicola Sturgeon to speak out.
Tell the Prime Minister: destructive fishing boats don't belong in protected waters.
Sign the petition asking the UK government to do everything they can to deliver a strong Global Ocean Treaty.
Forests are our life support system and they are actively under threat. Join us and take action against forest destroyers.
