Patrick Albert Moore (born June 15, 1947) is a Canadian industry consultant, former activist, and past president of Greenpeace Canada. I thus decided I had to speak out. One consensus today that's false is that America's environment is deteriorating, when by almost every measure America's environment is cleaner than it's been in more than one hundred years: the safety and quality of our drinking water; many wastewater treatment plants discharging cleaner water than their receiving streams; cleaner lakes and rivers; habitat creation, even in industrial settings like the Detroit River; smog elimination and less air pollution; and no more open dumping or uncontrolled land disposal of wastes.When it comes to the environment, we need to consider the concept of "competing goods," namely, mitigating man-made climate change versus the beneficial use of fossil fuels for energy, eliminating the waste from manufacturing life-saving medical devices versus the benefits they offer, preventing pharmaceutical products from entering our water supplies versus curing diseases, habitat protection versus food production.
At 27 I helped save the last unprotected ancient redwoods in California. But her friends are deeply misinformed and thus, understandably, frightened. I do not nor have I ever believed the rantings of alarmists in any area of life.I have a long record of climate and environmental activism. In fact, the hoopla over the spotted owl (that placed much northwest timber land off-limits to logging) turned out to be nothing but scientific misconduct and arrogance. But her friends are deeply misinformed and thus, understandably, frightened.Here are some facts few people know:But then, last year, things spiraled out of control.Precisely! The use of automobiles and access to pristine wilderness (rural) areas would be off-limits to us mere mortals, and would only be available for these anointed environmentalists.However, with the secret science and questionable funding that these environmental groups possess taints the whole barrel. A good example of this is the so-called global warming crap, now renamed climate change. The Sensible Environmentalist: It’s Time to Boycott the Boycotts Boycotts have unintended consequences, many of which are harmful to the environment and human health.
Patrick Moore (* 1947 in Port Alice, British Columbia, Kanada) ist ein kanadischer ehemaliger Umweltaktivist und heutiger PR-Berater. After leaving Greenpeace Moore has gone on to become what he calls a sensible environmentalist and explains how Greenpeace and other likeminded organizations have moved away from using science as a basis for their projects.Nice presentation, but I’ve always recognized ‘Gaia’ for what she is….a lesser god-the daughter of Chaos.In a nutshell, today’s environmentalism IS communism like watermelon-green on the outside and red (communist) on the inside.More scientific malpractice occurred when government biologists attempted to plant lynx fur in certain areas to provide an excuse for making those areas off-limits for logging or development. But that just shows the power of climate alarmism.The left will never forgive you for getting real and admitting the truth. Dr. Moore’s environmental policy is based entirely on science and logic which have lead him to some controversial opinions.Earlier this year, Dr. Moore engaged in a no holds barred conversation about the environmental movement.
