Perspective on issue occurring in society: Angel
In Greenpeace’s perspective, they are saying that it’s always the same dirty energy companies that are harming causing a majority of the oils spills and damaging the environment of Antarctica with their harsh equipments.
Reasons for perspective: Angel
The companies such as BP, Shell and Gazprom, Greenpeace says go out of their way to get their barrels of oil and nets and nets full of fish. They don’t take very much notice of the damage they are causing the environment of Antarctica. They only care about taking what their company needs in order for them to produce quality oil or fish and by this, to earn more money. For example: Greenpeace Russia has uncovered a startling secret that Gazprom has been keeping from the world: its oil spill response plan for the Prirazlomnaya oil platform has expired, meaning any drilling the company undertakes in this part of the Arctic would be illegal according to Russian legislation. This only proves Greenpeace’s point furthermore.

For many people the Antarctic is little more than a far-away frozen region, literally at the edge of the world; with sterile glaciers, icebergs and colonies of not-so ‘Happy Feet’ penguins, buffeted for much of their lives in the extreme Antarctic wind. The ice-covered waters of Antarctica are actually bursting with life. Magnificent whales, orcas, seals, fish and soaring seabirds come here to forage on krill-rich waters. Below the icy ocean surface, the seafloor is covered with a carpet of creatures of different shapes, colours and sizes, many of which are found nowhere else on Earth. Every year scientists find yet more species. The Antarctic is the world’s last wild frontier. And it is one that we need to protect before it’s too late. The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the most rapidly warming regions on Earth. Changes in sea ice have had an impact on krill - the basis of the Antarctic food web, whose depletion might cause potentially devastating effects on whales and other ocean life. After depleting over 80% of fish populations that live close to shore, greedy industrial fishing fleets are moving to the remote Antarctic regions to hover up fish and to suck up krill to feed the growing seafood demand on the other side of the world. Greenpeace is against oil spills in Antarctica.
As a result of their perspectives, Greenpeace is now coming together to push for action to save the Arctic. This means creating a global sanctuary in the uninhabited area around the North Pole (the region some people call the High Arctic) and a ban on offshore oil drilling and industrial fishing in the wider Arctic region. Also, they’re declaring global sanctuary in the Arctic where they have petitions for people to sign. When they reach their goal of 2,000,000 signs, they will plant your name and a Flag for the Future on the bottom of the ocean at the top of the world.

Reasons individual / group chose to take action using these methods: Fiat
Greenpeace is helping to lessen Antarctica’s oil spills. Greenpeace can educate and inform people to stop oil spills in Antarctica. They also show service when helping Antarctica creatures to survive in the oils and in the cold.
Impact on society of individual / group’s perspective: Fiat and Angel
Greenpeace's perspective have impacted on people differently. Since Greenpeace has got it’s word out the public and given information to further educate the people, the society wants to know more about Oil Spills and to act out. By this, the continent would have no more oil spills and it would not harm kill the animals.
