Soviet Whaling Tour in North Pacific 1976

Greenpeace first anti whaling campaign was carried out during the summer of 1975 in the North Pacific Ocean using the sailing vessel Phyllis Cormack to oppose the activities of a Russian whaling fleet. A year after the group embarked again with both the Phyllis Cormack and the James Bay to defend the whales.
