He is a co-founder of Greenpeace and served for nine years as President of Greenpeace Canada and seven years as a Director of Greenpeace International. As the leader of many campaigns Dr. Moore was a driving force shaping policy and direction for 15 years while Greenpeace became the world&#8217;s largest environmental activist organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent years, Dr. Moore has been focused on the promotion of sustainability and consensus building among competing concerns. He founded and chaired the BC Carbon Project, a group that worked to develop a common understanding of climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2021 Dr. Moore published &#8220;Fake Invisible Catastrophes and Threats of Doom&#8221; exposing the fake news and fake science around 11 claims of disaster including climate change, coral reefs, polar bears, plastic, nuclear energy, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This episode was filmed March 21st, 2024<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Peterson&#8217;s extensive catalog is available now on DailyWire+: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbGt1YnNUaWxtNFdBMHJDMzkySmpfWEhyb2FmQXxBQ3Jtc0tuQ01BMGd3bjdQVXhPaXR5SGFmSVVtLWFTN2dFVUxaeWhXcXVsS2ZwS0E0aUNSRTlMUmJpbzlSd0dMMXJIZE44OUJ5UFpMNEo2ZEQ3aUdJLXVkUTVtWHdxMUFoeVJFMV9HSzdteXZYZ2piSWQ5VDhLNA&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2F3KrWbS8&amp;v=oxTBpds2dQA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KrWbS8<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paper citation as promised: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbXpDM3E0Z1RlWm5jRlJJbTl5YVNoSTBxdW5Ud3xBQ3Jtc0tuX25ibm5sN0VOSUxDRG42T29reVBsQ25vSVp0TFgwMjBoNEVmYlhCWG82NWlFaXdWNDFHX3BRclFFVjYtNDcwalc4QVd0dGZaaFY3Rm1OMXk5VHdTZF9LejR1NGZXckRUaVRhdXY1TExtSURyMm1pOA&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fx.com%2Fjordanbpeterson%2Fstatus%2F1779009849533022659&amp;v=oxTBpds2dQA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/x.com\/jordanbpeterson\/status\/&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"723\" height=\"407\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oxTBpds2dQA?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Jordan B.
