The Green Party of Iran (GPI;
A banned party without any physical presence in Iran, it has a radical stance towards Iranian Department of Environment and considers it a "façade of environmental concern for the benefit of international observers", arguing that it "covers up environmental disasters of the state".[2] It is an exception to the Iranian environmentalist movement, in which most of organizations and NGOs are tolerated, and sometimes encouraged by the government.[2]
The party was founded in California, U.S. as a "professional Iranian expatriate opposition"[5] and was reportedly based in Canada as of 1999.[6] As of 2014, it is based in Germany.[7]
