As a result, companies generally don’t know who supplies their suppliers, making risk assessment much more difficult. He noted that supply chains became increasingly complex as companies outsourced production and then logistics. “Maybe the one good that can come out of the disaster in northeast Japan, will be rethinking global supply chains,” Shook said. Shook made his observations during a supply chain panel discussion at the Rebuilding Japan Conference organized by Bloomberg Link, a unit of business information giant Bloomberg, LP, on June 7, 2011, at the Japan Society in New York City. What Moore joined in 1971 was a committee called, engagingly, “Don’t Make A Wave Committee” (I can see why that didn’t catch on) and it seems they had a boat called Greenpeace.The massive supply chain disruptions caused by the Japan earthquake and tsunami show that companies must reconfigure supply chains to respond faster to natural or man-made crises, according to John Shook, chairman and CEO of the nonprofit Lean Enterprise Institute (LEI). I did see the letter, and it seems “Greenpeace” didn’t quite mean the same thing in 1970. They used to list Moore as a co-Founder on their website in the past (copy here), but now they say that they were formed in 1970, and he joined it in 1971, “see the letter”. Predictably, Greenpeace is firing their best ad hom, and referring to him as a “paid spokesman for the Nuclear Industry” and are busy rewriting history. The Vancouver Sun has a rare debate between Moore and Rex Weyler, another co-Founder (see below for a snippet). And not surprisingly stretched a few of his old friendships. Last November he published a tempting book: Confessions of a Greenpeace Dropout: The Making of a Sensible Environmentalist. He abandoned them in 1986 so he could pursue his environmental passions. Patrick Moore was a co-founder of Greenpeace way back in 1971. Rather than lecturing to the “converted”, the principal purpose of this visit is for him to meet with opinion leaders in the media, politics and business to convey a rational environmentalist’s views on why policies instituted because of the “catastrophic climate change” scare need to be realistically addressed. Patrick Moore (co-founder of Greenpeace) in October – November this year. He is a rare man and obviously sceptical of “catastrophic” global warming.Īustralia is hosting a “climate information” visit by Dr. This is his journey from eco-warrior to defender of science, logic and the environment. He’s a powerful, sensible advocate for compassionate reason. In the video below Patrick Moore talks about his extensive work with Greenpeace during its first 15 years and the useful contributions they made before he split from them because of their increasingly irrational policies. Other Greenpeace starring moments: Greenpeace is coming:“We know where you live.” Unintended Consequences: Greens protect coal Ĭase Smit and John Smeed are working to get Patrick Moore to visit Australia soon. Just Greenpeace copying their Soviet idols. Thanks to the Wayback Machine we know that sometime in March 2007 he fell off the Founders list. He traveled on the first Greenpeace boat trip. (Click to Enlarge) 40 years of Greenpeace history Patrick Moore was called one of the five founders of Greenpeace. The Greenpeace site on February 25th, 2007. Patrick was not only one of the first five, but he was their only scientist. Thanks to Anthony Watts for finding the tweet and reminding us of things we posted long ago. If they’ll lie about their own history, what won’t they lie about? (And what is Greenpeace anyway if not paid lobbyists?) They promptly tweeted that he was never a founder and is a paid lobbyist. So Greenpeace leapt to do some damage control on their brandname and created more damage instead.
