When you learn to read, you will see that he did write:
>The leader of Greenpeace, Uta Bellison

Every human is part of the EF! movement, not the organization, so Bellison
is a Grenpeace member, and a part in the EF! movement.
(EF! is the earth's fan club, and those who are not in this fan club,
can move to an other planet!)
