Groundbreaking VICTORY for Greenpeace Campaign: You pushed Princes to start protecting our oceans

It is with enormous pleasure that Greenpeace can reveal a groundbreaking victory for their oceans campaign: Princes, a leading tinned tuna brand, finally got your message that canning ocean destruction is unacceptable. Thanks to your efforts - the company has just announced a plan to change the way it gets its tuna.

After receiving over 80,000 emails from Greenpeace supporters, Princes says it will no longer rely on indiscriminate and destructive fishing methods that kill all kinds of marine creatures like sharks and rays. The campaign to convince Princes to ‘change its tuna’ began at the end of 2010, and reached a climax a few weeks ago, when Greenpeace activists climbed on top of Princes HQ in Liverpool, while others dressed in shark costumes and played the theme tune ‘Jaws’ through loud speakers.
