Patrick Moore, an early member of Greenpeace, now supported by the Nuclear Energy Institute
Patrick Moore, an early member of Greenpeace, now supported by the Nuclear Energy Institute, who later rejected traditional environmentalism, directly criticized Leonardo DiCaprio and the film The 11th Hour in an article for the Vancouver Sun on August 29, 2007 titled 'An Inconvenient Fact'
"DiCaprio's movie, The 11th Hour, is another example of anti-forestry scare tactics, this time said to be "brilliant and terrifying" by James Christopher of the London Times. Maybe so, but instead of surrendering to the terror, keep in mind that there are solutions to the challenges of climate, and our forests are among them. This film should be a good, clear reminder for us to put the science before the Hollywood hype.
Questions:
1: Who was supported by the Nuclear Energy Institute, Moore or Greenpeace?
2: Shouldn't it be 'anti-deforestry'?
3: What does it mean where it says 'and our forest are among them'?
4: What does the phrase 'to put the science before the Hollywood hype' mean?
