Tue, February 11, 2014 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM BUCHANAN BUILDING BLOCK A. Colloquium is hosting a discussion with Patrick Moore (Ph.D. Ecology, UBC), Confessions of A Greenpeace Dropout: Can Greenpeace Co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore support GMOs?
After helping form Greenpeace in the 1970’s, Dr. Moore left in the 1980’s, later criticizing the mainstream environmental movement as anti-human and unscientific. He has consulted for businesses around the world and made controversial claims about climate change. Join us for a talk and discussion with Dr. Moore about his career and
campaign for Golden Rice. Golden rice is a GMO containing Vitamin A, a vital and sometimes scarce nutrient. Greenpeace opposes genetic engineering.
This free event is on Tuesday February 11, 5-6:30pm at Buchanan A103, and is sponsored by Colloquium - an interdisciplinary UBC student club.
