Greenpeace's opposition to the planting of genetically modified Golden Rice in the Philippines has sparked controversy. Critics argue that this stance could lead to the deaths of thousands of children who could benefit from the rice's nutritional value. The organization's stance on nuclear power and preference for coal plants have also drawn criticism for their potential health impacts.

Greenpeace is also one of the last anti-nuclear holdouts. They would rather have coal plants, which, apart from global warming, kill hundreds of thousands every year. Between that and golden rice: I challenge you to name another nonprofit actively working to kill so many people. https://t.co/WU1j2GorAQ
