40 years ago today, the #Greenpeace flagship Rainbow Warrior was bombed by French secret service agents. Two blasts destroyed the ship and murdered onboard photographer, Fernando Pereira.
The attack backfired, instead galvanising the movement. Greenpeace only grew stronger, and "You Can't Sink a Rainbow" became a rallying call for resistance.
The Rainbow Warrior sailed again and is here today as a powerful symbol of resistance, putting hope into action for a better world.
