Greenpeace founder blasts Greenpeace.

Today I listened to one of the most interesting conversations of talk radio I've ever heard. It was a podcast from Penn Jillette's radio show. Yes the Penn of the Penn and Teller magic act. He had on Environmentalist, Patrick Moore one of the founders of Greenpeace whom ended up leaving Greenpeace in 1988 because his claims that they lost sight of what the group was put together for becoming a front for pushing a communist/socialist agenda. He says that they are using environmental issues as a means to push their political agenda rather than studying and acting on real environmental problems. He also goes on to talk about things like nuclear power being the best form of power generation we have currently, DDT not being dangerous and it's banning worldwide causing more illness and death than it ever was proven to have caused (which is none), the lack of evidence that our increased industrial emissions are actually the cause or linked to the slight rise in temperature considered "Global Warming" rather than being a naturally occurring event, and that biotech engineering is good and necessary.

Really interesting stuff. Give it a listen, the link is below:
