The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the memorandum and articles of association and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: SORP applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102.

Objectives and activities

Purposes and aims

The Trustees review the aim, objectives and activities of the Trust each year in order to ensure that they remain focused on its stated purposes. This report looks at what the Trust has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period.

The Trust aims to achieve its objectives by funding work that includes education, scientific research, investigations and promoting sustainable development. In the medium to long term the areas of work being prioritised are:

The Trust works closely with other Greenpeace entities around the world so as to maximise the impact of its charitable work.

Grant-making Policy

The primary way in which the Trust aims to achieve its objectives is through making grants to likeminded organ the Trust must fall within its charitable objects and they must comply with the relevant statutes and - regulations that are applicable to charities in the UK. Projects m making Policy, full details of which can be obtained from the Company Secretary.

The Trust will normally only consider projects that are directly related to the priority work areas shown above, and the Trustees, in the to approve or reject any grant application.

The Trust also has procedures in place to monitor grants made to ensure that they are spent in line with the conditions attached and with the objects of the Trust.

Fundraising policy

The Trust aims to fundraise in the most effective way possible, with much of the effort going into the promotion of legacy giving. The Trust also maintains relationships with a number of trusts and foundations that from time to time provide grants for the by the Trust in the year for raising funds were payroll giving agencies, which promote and administer Since 2018 the Trust has been providing a free willwriting service to supporters through a third party organisation.

The Trust complies with all relevant fundraising codes of practice and pays an annual levy to the Fundraising Regulator. There has been no non-compliance with any code and no complaints have been received in the year. The Trust does not fundraise from vulnerable people and follows all

The quality of services provided by third party fundraisers is set by contracts held with these organisations, with actual performance reviewed by the relevant fundraising manager. The Trust has a formal process whereby the supporter services team provide the fundraising director with monthly information about all supporter feedback categorised to specific fundraising activities, and a formal complaints process which would identify any issues or complaints and bring them to the attention of the fundraising director.

Public Benefit

tricted to any particular section of the global population, the Trust does direct more funding towards those areas of the world where environmental degradation is at its worst and towards areas of the world where the impact of environmental degradation may be greatest. In practice, this means that a greater proportion of the in more developed areas of the world where understanding of the benefits of environmental protection to humans and animals are less-well appreciated.

Greenpeace Environmental Trust

annual report

For the year ended 31 December 2021

Because the Trust funds projects that have global, rather than local compass, the outcomes are, by their very nature, felt in the longer term, rather than demonstrating any instant benefit in one place, or to any single group of people or animals. The Trust aims to protect the global environment rather than the conservation of any single habitat. Halting the impact of climate change is a long-term task, and the benefits of that work will only be felt in future years.

The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.

Strategic report

Achievements and performance in the delivery of public benefit

The Trust met its strategic objectives during the year by funding a wide range of projects that were consistent with our mission. In this respect we funded projects in the areas of education, scientific research and investigations, and the promotion of sustainable development.

Despite the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, fundraising in 2021 performed well overall. Total Trust income for the year was £11.8m compared to £10.6 million in 2020.

2021 was a bumper year for legacy income with £6.8m received against the original budget of £4.1m. This is mainly due to receiving two very large gifts - the delayed and very high value Sabbatino legacy of which £2.6m was received in 2021, and the Lester estate of £1.6m which we had expected to receive in 2022 but the payment came in at the end of 2021 due to a very quick house sale and very efficient solicitor. This will present issues for 2022 income as our pipeline has drained earlier than expected into 2021 and therefore we expect legacy income to be considerably lower in 2022.

The number of notifications received for both pecuniary and residuary legacies has slightly exceeded targets for the year, but not significantly and we saw a fairly average number by year end. The sector analysis that gift numbers would rise strongly this year due to probate registry backlogs being cleared has not materialized and backlogs remain and these are now reported to clear in 2022.

did manage one 100% attended in-person event at the Barbican for our 50th!), we kept innovating and finding ways to retain our most generous supporters. We met our original target overall, while also being ready to hold prospecting events as soon as is feasible - through continued prospect research to build the pipeline, and by engaging key influencers for hosting purposes. We also received £1m from the PPL - a bridging amount - before the £1.5m grant, per year for three years begins in 2022.

Greenpeace International East Asia Development

Funding to Greenpeace International East Asia Development contributed to a number of projects within the priority campaign area of climate urgency and response. Project work included: raising awareness of the need for clean air through a visual campaign, with videos created containing people from eight countries demanding clean air, releasing a climate risk report measuring climate change from extreme heat and extreme rainfall around three metropolitan areas within China, identifying the highest and fastest increases in risk. Additionally, a report was also published to increase awareness concerning impact of sea-level rise and extreme weather events. Further work on climate emergency response was undertaken raising awareness of the annual flooding that occurs within East Asia and the linkages to the climate crisis. During the year a report was released ranking clean renewable energy use and those who have fallen behind. Research work was also undertaken to quantify and visualise climate change in South Korea over the last two decades, raising awareness to the public on rising temperatures due to climate change.

Greenpeace International Russia Development Project

The Trust once again supported the Greenpeace Russia Development Project with grant funding in 2021, which focused on two key areas forests biodiversity and raising awareness of key environmental issues. Forests biodiversity work focussed on two key goals. The first goal was to support transition from the current wood mining style of forest management to climate and biodiversity friendly forestry, through development of community-based forest management on abandoned agricultural lands, and raising awareness of the need for protection of the federal protected areas system and other high carbon and biodiversity rich forests. The second goal was to create and test transition from an almost all-state firefighting system to a model with developed volunteer participation, including at municipal and regional levels. Raising awareness of key environmental issues was also undertaken to bring environmental injustices into the focus of Russian audiences concerning the climate emergency and need for system of change, through publication of a quarterly magazine, outreach and online engagement activities, and linking

Greenpeace International Brazil Development

Funding to Greenpeace International Brazil Development was provided to support work in the priority campaign area of forests biodiversity, with project work focussing on the Amazon. The aim of this work was to expose forest destruction, , and the impact of the destruction on Indigenous lives as well as the local community, through supporting the protection of Brazilian Amazon forests ensuring that Indigenous people are educated in their legal rights and how to exercise them. The work also involved raising awareness for the Indigenous case nationally and internationally, through collection of footage, research, mapping and monitoring the outlines of protected land. Several activities were conducted in different countries during Amazon week (Aug 30 to Sep 5) including video production of landmarks and social media activities designed to educate and engage the public. Work was also undertaken on raising awareness of the expansion of meat

in Brazil, particularly the Karipuna.

Greenpeace International Global Programme

The Trust provided funding in 2021 to the Greenpeace International Global Programme for projects in two key areas, biodiversity and climate urgency, focussing on five projects. Firstly, contributing to building a new and resilient Muslim climate movement of over 1 million people and to the resilience of participating organisations through wider and deeper engagement in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Secondly, contributing to Global Mapping Hub work in Russia and effective mapping support to raise awareness of the impact of global priorities concerning the climate emergency through machine learning, supporting creation of an effective responsiveness system on climate crises with GIS tools. Thirdly, contributing to work to reimagine cities by making them more resilient, increasing climate relevance by advancing local initiatives that tackle climate emergency and educating groups, particularly those from marginalised communities and reframing consumption patterns to change the culture of consumerism, raising awareness through educational projects. The fourth project involved work in South East Asia, building a green economy community, including acting as facilitators, social media engagement and content creation designed to raise awareness amongst the public. Lastly, the fifth project involved work in Aoterea/New Zealand, developing a Green ideas mindset, which provided education and shifted key mindsets in New Zealand to achieve biodiversity and climate goals.

Greenpeace Ltd

Support for the work carried out by Greenpeace Ltd continued, covering climate, oceans and forests. One area was raising awareness of climate issues, bringing them to the forefront of the wider high-level research and investigations, to amplify the most important global stories and holding decision makers to account. Also, through education and raising awareness, coordinating across the movement, to ensure our collective impact is maximized. Another significant focus was ocean ecosystems, specifically work on raising awareness of the need to establish a network of fully or highly protected Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) across at least 30% of UK waters, securing a ban on supertrawlers from all UK offshore MPAs and a ban on all bottom trawlers from all UK MPAs. Also work was undertaken focussing on research and investigations to expose how everyday plastics are recycled, educating and raising awareness to the public how UK waste is polluting nature or causing a health crisis in other countries. A further area of work focused on raising awareness of issues concerning forest protection. Firstly, raising awareness of the link between everyday food and destruction and secondly building alliances to strengthen the movement by supporting indigenous communities on the frontline of Amazon destruction.

Financial review

Total income for the year under review was £11.8 million, which is an increase of approximately 11.3% on the previous year. The primary factor behind this increase was from income received from two significant legacies one of which was received much sooner than originally expected.

Cost of generating income was 70% higher than in the previous year due to increase in legacy marketing expenditure for an integrated gift in wills campaign incurred by the Trust.

The amount of grants made during the year decreased on 7.80 million compared with £10.15 million in 2020. The decrease is due to a reduction in grants made to Greenpeace Ltd within the current year. The Trust will aim to ensure grant expenditure is in excess of its expected income on charitable activities in the next few years, in line with its medium-term plan to reduce reserves to its target range.

Principal risks and uncertainties

The Trustees review the risks that the Trust faces on an annual basis and maintain an up to date risk register to record these risks and the mitigating actions that are available in order to minimise the potential harm that the risks could cause.

reputation from actions taken elsewhere in the world by other Greenpeace entities over which the Trust has no control, and secondly the risk that the Trust has insufficient funds to pay agreed grants due to fluctuations in income.

The first mitigated by the Trust, maintains a clear and strict separation between its activities and those of other Greenpeace entities. The second mitigated, by only approving grant awards when the Trust has sufficient funds to pay them, or has sufficient certainty that funds will be available on the date that grant awards have to be paid to the recipient.

Reserves policy and going concern

The Trustees have set a reserves policy to ensure that the Trust is able to continue fundraising, management, governance and administration for one year during any unforeseen difficulties. At present this is in the range £333,000 - £344,000, which is budgeted income. The current level of unrestricted reserves of £4,590,176 is in excess of this target range, due to income being greater than anticipated in recent years and particularly in 2021, when a £1.6m legacy was received in December which had been expected in 2022. However the Trust has a medium term plan to reduce the level of reserves to its target range by maintaining the amount spent on grants and by aiming to ensure that it is in excess of income.

The general reserves of the Trust are held in cash deposit accounts in the UK. This is to ensure that funds are available to meet th

of a reduction in value; and to avoid potential conflicts of interest if funds were invested in the shares of companies engaged in activities that are harmful to the environment. This policy is reviewed annually.

Future plans

The Trust will continue to maintain cost effective fundraising and administrative services that are currently undertaken by a legacy administration consultant, who is supported by services donated by Greenpeace Ltd. Fundraising efforts in particular will continue to be concentrated on the also continue to secure more grants from trusts and foundations. The main area of uncertainty in future running costs relates to the legal fees that are associated with legacies, where the Trustees

Given the costs involved, the Trust does not operate a membership scheme for our many supporters, but continues to use the services of professional fundraising agencies to promote Payroll Giving and Gift Aid, though only to the extent that these services are efficient and cost effective.

The Trust plans grant expenditure at a level that is designed, when taken with projected income, to achieve its reserves target within the medium term. With reserves above the level required, budgets for grant expenditure will remain higher than budgeted income for the next few years.

Grant expenditure is only made from within existing uncommitted cash resources, and is therefore subject to the level of reserves available and the Trust achieving its income forecasts. The Trust will only commit to grants which it can be certain of funding in full. In the event that income falls below the level projected, grant expenditure would be reduced in future years.

Grants will continue to be made in line with our existing grant policy. The Trustees have agreed that most expenditure over the coming years will continue to address global environmental concerns around the world, with a growing emphasis on work in the developing world, and on the promotion of solutions to our global environmental problems.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the .

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

To the members of

Greenpeace Environmental Trust

that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an h level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Based on our understanding of the charitable company and the environment in which it operates, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to compliance with Charity Law, and we considered the extent to which noncompliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.

We evaluated manag financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to . Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

Greenpeace Environmental Trust

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 December 2021

1 Accounting policies

a) Statutory information disclosure

Greenpeace Environmental Trust is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in the United Kingdom.

The registered office address is Canonbury Villas, London, N1 2PN.

b) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (March 2018) and the Companies Act 2006.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

The Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

d) Going concern

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Trust's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

e) Income

Income is recognised when the Trust has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the Trust is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount

have been notified to the Trust, or the Trust is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Lottery Income: Greenpeace Environmental Trust received in 2020 proceeds of lotteries held by People's Postcode Lottery (PPL). The Trust has no ability to alter the price of tickets, determine the prizes or reduce the management fee. As such, PPL is treated as acting as the principal. Net proceeds due to the Trust are recognised under Other trading activities in the statement of financial activities. The analysis of the proceeds is detailed in Note 5.

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Greenpeace Environmental Trust

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 December 2021

f) Donations of gifts, services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the Trust has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the Trust of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS

any

On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Trust which is the amount the Trust would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

The only such donations received in the year were services provided by Greenpeace Ltd and included the provision of some office space and time spent by certain Greenpeace Ltd employees. The cost associated with the provision of these services was calculated on the basis of data supplied by Greenpeace Ltd.

g) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Trust; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

h) Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.

The permanent endowment fund comprises the original capital fund, which was established to provide an income to be spent in accordance with the objectives of the Trust. The capital cannot be converted into income.

i) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

j) Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the central administrative functions, including donated staff time, is apportioned on the basis of an estimate of time spent on each activity.

k) Governance costs

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the Trust. These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the Trust's activities.

Greenpeace Environmental Trust

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 December 2021

1 Accounting policies (continued)

l) Investment properties

Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently included in the balance sheet at fair value. Investment properties are not depreciated. Any change in fair value is recognised in the statement of financial activities and any excess of fair value over the historic cost of the investments will be shown as a fair value reserve in the balance sheet. The valuation method used to determine fair value will be stated in the notes to the accounts.

m) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

n) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

o) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the Trust has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

p) Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

q) Grant making policy

Grants payable are made to third parties in furtherance of the charity's objects. Single or multi-year grants are accounted for when either the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and the trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition, or the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and that any condition attaching to the grant is outside of the control of the charity.

9 Analysis of staff costs and numbers, and trustee remuneration and expenses

The Trust does not directly employ any staff but instead engages a legacy consultant to handle all of the Trust's legacy matters.
