they won't declare bankruptcy until all appeals are exhausted or until they have dispersed all their assets - both will take months or years

by the way Greanpeace is actually many orgs. There is Greanpeace USA, Greenpeace International and Greenpeace Fund, Inc. To some extent they can shuffle around the assets.

This $665M fine just broke GreenPeace.
They have declare Bankrupcy and start using a new name.

Remember the GreenPeace start out in 1960's as a NON-Violent Eco group. Then with Ape $hit FAR Left using destructive and violent protests over the years.

Given, GP "claims" to only accept Private Donations from about 3+ Million supporters. It will need to cough up about 3x what its annual operational budget is for this conspired Political stunt, which oddly they just happen to do during the Trump #1 tenure.
