Here is a fundamental artifact from the dawn of the modern environmental movement. This vintage pinback button features the classic "Greenpeace" name flanked by two powerful symbols: the "Theta" Ecology symbol (a circle with a horizontal line) representing the earth and environment, and the iconic CND Peace sign. Set against a bright, urgent yellow background, this design captures the dual mission of the organization—peace and ecology—that defined 1970s activism. The item is a true survivor, featuring crazing on the glossy front and significant, heavy oxidation on the metal reverse, confirming its authentic age and journey through decades of protest.

  • Authentic early 1970s environmental memorabilia.

  • Features the rare Ron Cobb "Theta" Ecology symbol.

  • Includes the classic CND Peace sign graphic.

  • Vibrant yellow background for high visibility.

  • Heavy vintage rust/patina on the reverse proves age.

  • A foundational piece of "Green Movement" history.

This item is desirable because it represents the grassroots beginnings of global environmentalism, long before it was mainstream. It would make an inspiring gift for a modern climate activist, an ecologist, or a historian of social movements.
