GREENPEACE Pacific Campaign The bombing of the RAINBOW WARRIOR by French military agents in July 1985 strengthened Greenpeace' s long term commitment to the Pacific. The fragile coral reef environment of the Pacific, one of the planet's last frontiers, is seriously threatened by increasing amounts of nuclear and toxic contaminants. In 1989, the Greenpeace Pacific Campaign will be working in the region to protect unique ecosystems and marine mammals, and prevent destructive activities from damaging the integrity of the Pacific environment. Greenpeace's goals are to work with the people of the region towards: 1) establishing a completely Nuclear Free Pacific by creating more restrictive nuclear free areas such as ports which ban visits by nuclear powered/capable vessels; ending transit of nuclear armed/powered vessels; ending French nuclear weapons testing in the Pacific; banning missile flight testing; banning radioactive waste storage; and stopping the expansion of nuclear industry into the Pacific. 2) establishing a Pollution Free Pacific by restricting pesticide use in the Pacific; opposing export of products that are banned, severely restricted or unregistered in their country of origin to the Pacific; opposing the transference of hazardous technologies to the Pacific like Ocean Incineration; and opposing the shipment or trade of waste through the Pacific and the hazards associated with such shipment. 3) Preserving Coral Reefs by establishing low-lying coral atolls as specially protected areas, inherently part of the marine environment and restricted from hazardous activities which threaten the environment (hazardous activities such as disposing of nuclear or toxic chemical materials on coral atolls); portraying the pacific reef environment as an interconnected fragile ecosystem - unique to the planet. 4) Conserving Wildlife Species and Fish Stocks by phasing out irresponsible and destructive fishing methods such as driftnets which entangle and drown marine mammals; and the practice of "setting on dolphin" world-wide which is a very destructive fishing method used to locate tuna - the associative bond has been exploited, and is an unnecessary practice for tuna fishing.
