8. PROTESTSPROTESTS OF GREENPEACEOF GREENPEACE
Amchitka,1971
In the late 1960s, the U.S. had plans for an underground nuclear
weapon test in the tectonically unstable island of Amchitka in
Alaska. A 1969 demonstration of 7,000 people blocked a major
U.S.-Canadian border crossing in British Columbia, carrying signs
reading "Don't Make A Wave. It's Your Fault If Our Fault Goes". The
protests did not stop the U.S. from detonating the bomb. In the fall
of 1971, the ship called "Greenpeace“ sailed to Amchitka to stop
the test, but they didn’t stop it. In the mid-1970s independent
groups using the name Greenpeace started springing up world wide.
By 1977 there were 15 to 20 Greenpeace groups around the world.
