As we were reflecting on all of the incredible rallies, protests and actions from our people-powered movement over the past few years, we happened upon a heartwarming trend: we have a sizeable number of furry friends in our ranks!
From Dachshunds to Dalmatians, pups of all sizes and breeds having been showing up, tails wagging, to remind us that it doesn’t matter how loud your bark, but that you bark at all that counts. For your bark is just one among many!
Naturally, we wanted to celebrate our canine crew and their #PupPower by creating a curated selection of Greenpeace puptivists from over the years.
