Patrick Moore
Dr. Patrick Moore is a lifelong independent scientist and environmentalist. He was a co-founder of Greenpeace in 1971, a director for 15 years, and a leader of many campaigns, including ending nuclear weapons testing, saving the whales, and ending toxic dumping. In the mid-1980s he became disenchanted with the positions his fellow Greenpeace directors were adopting, using misinformation, sensation, and fear for fundraising, instead of using valid science. He struck out on his own, determined to be a sensible environmentalist, basing policies on sound science, and balancing environmental, social, and economic priorities. He is a humanitarian environmentalist who believes people are not the enemy of the environment but rather an integral part
