President, Greenspirit
Dr. Moore has been a leader in the international environmental field for 30 years. He is a founding member of Greenpeace and served for nine years as President of Greenpeace Canada and seven years as a Director of Greenpeace International. In recent years, Dr. Moore has focused attention on the promotion of sustainability among competing concerns. In 1991 he founded Greenspirit, a consultancy concentrating on environmental policy and communications in natural resources, biodiversity, energy, and climate change. He will discuss how consensus building can help restore confidence by the public in the efficacy of science and dispel the skepticism that has dogged biotechnology research in the recent past.
