Thie "paid spokesman for the nuclear industry, the logging industry, and genetic engineering industry" was not a co-founder of Greenpeace.

From Wikipedia:

Greenpeace has criticized Moore, calling him "a paid spokesman for the nuclear industry, the logging industry, and genetic engineering industry"[4] who "exploits long-gone ties with Greenpeace to sell himself as a speaker and pro-corporate spokesperson".[5]

When you see someone making a valid scientific argument and their reputation is diminished in this way, without producing proper counter-arguments. That indicates that politics is at play.
