[edit] Is this objective enough?

This article looks pretty biased to me... anyone else think it needs to be objectified a bit? Grutness 12:49, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Agreed, there is a definite bias in the article. Most articles involving Greenpeace and other PC organizations are heavily biased. It needs a rewrite. --Bigbrisco (talk) 19:27, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Biased? Yes. Original? no. Found the Original (new at wikipedia. Tried to use refrence tags to point to it.) Also contacting Greenpeace about the site too (who knows maybe they'll send an original already with sources from there pages. still could be biased but at least then it is verifiable.

The article isn't objective, but it's hard to understand how much the US and other nations hated having someone watch over their operations. At the time the US burned their trash with JP8 jet fuel and dumped sewage right into the ocean with trash floating out there as well. GP showed up and documented leaking fuel tanks and burning trash and exposed how bad the Navy was running the place. There's a vehicle that still exists at McMurdo named Green Piece. The thing is a busted old truck that belches smoke. I think that vehicle sums up the hatred for GP on the continent, but they did some really great stuff. The US treats its sewage better than most municipalities in the US now, runs on about 1/3 wind power thanks to 3 large wind turbines, and hauls all trash off continent. It's night and day and GP is to thank for a lot of that. They got the ball rolling —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tas50 (talkcontribs) 07:31, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
