One Activist to Another

Backstage with one of the founders of Greenpeace.

Dorothy Stowe, one of the founders of the worldwide environmental movement Greenpeace, had only ever been to one other rock show. And that was a Greenpeace benefit organised by her late husband Irving Stowe in 1970.

But on Friday Dorothy was backstage at the Vancouver show sharing her many years of campaigning wisdom with Bono.

Incidentally, this weekend also saw the death of another key person in the genesis of this great organisation. Read about Bob Hunter and the early days of Greenpeace here.

To learn more about Greenpeace and how you can get on board, check out our Hearts and Minds section here.

This is one of the most touching moments to come out of the Vertigo tour so far!

Very, very special meeting of two Hearts and Minds. :wink:
 
Bob Hunter was a huge Canadian presence.

He was all over the TV all the time. Seemed like a good guy.
