Ooooo! This is the thing that inspired my path in life, the Rainbow Warrior!
Since I was 12 years old in fact! Greenpeace was the reason my whole life journey took the path it did, from majoring in environmental studies and forest science to my work experience. An aside: I found an old Greenpeace petition for the moratorium on whales dating from when I was 12.
Anyways, when news came yesterday afternoon that Rainbow Warrior has berthed in Singapore, I was determined to go onboard! Joe Lai of the Homeschooling group was nice enough to organize a visit for the homeschooling parents. We had a tour of the ship!!! It's a 55 meter boat and there's a North American totem painted on a part of the ship. The ship's name was inspired by a North American Indian prophecy which foretells a time when human greed will make the Earth sick, and a mythical band of warriors will descend from a rainbow to save it.
