Earthlife Africa

Earthlife Africa is a South African environmental organization founded in August 1988, in Johannesburg. Initially conceived of as a South African version of Greenpeace, the group began by playing a radical, anti-apartheid, activist role, while now arguably is more of a reformist lobby or pressure group. Considered by some to be a key voice in the emerging environmental justice movement, Earthlife Africa is criticised by some as still being too radical, and by others as intent on working with traditional conservation movements rather than linking activist NGOs in furthering its environmental goals.
