Patrick Moore is a Vancouver-based industry consultant who frequently publishes opinion pieces attacking the environmental movement and promoting nuclear power, toxic chemicals, logging and aquaculture. Articles by him or about him have been published in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Miami Herald, LA Times, Washington Times, National Post (Canada), Toronto Star, Vancouver Sun, Mid-Hudson News (New York) and Ottawa Citizen, among others.
Moore invariably identifies himself a Co-founder of Greenpeace and Chairman and Chief Scientist of Greenspirit Strategies Ltd. It is true that he was one of the early leaders of Greenpeace in Canada, though he exaggerates when he claims to be a co-founder (see Annex C). He left the group in 1986, and is scorned by his ex-colleagues. (see Annex A).
What Moore does not reveal in his writings, but is evident on his website, is that he is a paid industry consultant, and has been for at least 15 years.
