This is a fun discussion with Dr. Patrick Moore and we discussed his first 15 years in Greenpeace, and why he left. In his book "Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout - The Making of a Sensible Environmentalist" he covered global whaling, baby seal clubbing, and trying to save humanity from nuclear proliferation and annihilation. Personally, I have always had a negative connotation for Greenpeace and its mission, and it is clear that I did not hear the entire story. Dr. Moore is truly the "Sensible Environmentalists" and his opinions and insights are more applicable now than in his 15 years at Greenpeace. With the current geopolitical situation and the current administration, we need to learn from Dr. Moore and become sensible humans. This is part one, and part two will be released shortly. Dr. Moore is planning on stopping by the ENB podcast soon to cover his new book, "Fake Invisible Catastrophes and Threats of Doom." Dr. Moore, thank you for your time and I am looking to future discussions.
