They sure do. They've also been sued for it, too, because it's bad. It's also bad for Greenpeace to do it.
There is absolutely no way the damage is that large and this seems to be mostly a revenge action by a community in which Greenpeace - or any other environmental organization - would never get a fair trial to begin with.
