ABSTRACT

Phase I — Situation Established in 1971, Greenpeace is an international non-profit organization headquartered in Canada that claims to be “the leading independent campaigning organization to use peaceful protests and creative communication” (Radford, 2011). Your non-profit organization is primarily focused on environmental concerns with the protection and well-being of the planet’s natural resources, as well as fostering peace (Greenpeace, 2012). Historically, Greenpeace has been extremely concerned about the effects of nuclear testing and nuclear power plants (Radford, 2011). It is 1985, and your organization has been protesting for years about the danger of nuclear power. Your organization currently has two ships at their disposal and has received funds from donors for operating costs (Radford, 2011). Your organization has learned that the French government is about to perform a nuclear test at Mururoa Atoll in the Pacific (NZ History, 2012).
