Eco-Traitor?
Founder of Greenpeace a sellout?
Well, according to this article on Wired News, not only is Patrick Moore a eco-sellout, but he’s proud of it. Personally, I find his views fascinating and, oddly enough, in line with mine! He claims that Greenpeace has been hijacked by people that aren’t in favor of better environment and sustainable living, but rather people that are anti-“big business” and anti-industialism. His contention is that that has nothing to do with protecting the environment.
Mr. Moore is now in favor of things like nuclear energy, since it’s cleaner than coal and more productive, and gene-altered food, since it’s often healthier than non-genemodified food (according to him). It sure is an interesting about face for the freaking founder of Greenpeace. And, of course, a fascinating article.
