Presentations

Environmentalism for the 21st Century
Every day 6 billion people wake up with real needs for food, energy and materials. The challenge for sustainability is to provide for our needs in ways that reduce negative impact on the environment, while also being socially acceptable and technically and economically feasible.

The Future of Energy on Earth
As the world looks for ways to reduce its reliance on CO2-emitting fossil fuels, renewable energies such as hydro, wind, geothermal and solar will play an important role. However, these renewables will require the help of nuclear energy, the only non-greenhouse gas-emitting power source capable of meeting global demand.

Forests and the Environment
Moore provides a new insight into how forests work and how they can play a powerful role in solving many of our current environmental problems.

Sustainable Development and Health
The agriculture debate and value of genetically modified foods

Summary Profile

Dr. Patrick Moore believes that one of our most serious environmental problems can be attributed to the ineffective communication between special interest groups and the business community.

A leader of the international environmental movement for more than 30 years, Dr. Moore reveals the myths and misinformation that distort current environmental debates. He calls for issues to be discussed on the basis of accurate scientific data, a search for consensus and the creation of sustainable solutions.

Moore was a founding member and former President of Greenpeace, and currently is the Chair and Chief Scientist of the environmental consulting firm Greenspirit Strategies.

An informed, provocative speaker, Dr. Moore's presentations inspire new ways of thinking about our environmental challenges. Business, professional and educational groups find his views refreshing, informative and relevant. Dr. Moore has played a prominent role in raising environmentalism to the forefront of public concern in Canada and throughout the world.
