It is all about Money. Greenpace large portfolio of shares.

Greenpace owns a large portfolio of shares in companies that share their ideals, and a number of biotechnology patents also have been gifted to them.

As you can see here, Greenpeace has a commercial interest in the virtuous goals of their organization.

An start up give a share opf its business to Greenpeace and Greenpeace goes about trashing any existing competing business.

Publicity? They got it free fo charge. This is done by publicity stunts to get free coverage in the media.

Investors have a benefit:

if an individual donates securities held long-term to a “public” charity, such as a church, educational institution, health care organization, or other cause, the amount he or she can claim as a charitable gift for federal income tax purposes is the securities’ fair market value on the date of the gift. See Internal Revenue Code section 170(b)(1)(A).
