Greenpeace USA's budget is funded by contributions from individual
people.  Greenpeace USA sends a comprehensive annual report to anyone
who asks, complete with an audit report from an independent accounting
firm.
Greenpeaces worldwide seldom qualify for foundation grants, and
receive no funding from industry.
Corporate funding is one way you can tell the grass roots from the
Astroturf (tm).
Look into "Wise Use" and you'll find an alliance of John Birchers,
extractive industry, LaRouche followers, and Rev. Sun Myung Moon.
No wonder they use front organizations.
