		Up on the bridge, both with their feet up, both totally unexcited by the mayhem they were causing in Faroese and Danish government circles, were two men: Sea Shepherd's veteran vegan-warrior skipper, Captain Paul Watson, and his friend and mentor, an older, slighter man with a pony tail, a gas mask and a notebook.
		Hunter, who died on Monday aged 63, and Watson were two of many "co-founders" of Greenpeace but together they probably best represented the group's early spirit of courage, defiance and media-savviness.
		Hunter's theory was that the slightly crazed boat of "rainbow warriors" (a name he took from an Indian legend which he happened to be reading on the Aleutian trip and which he later gave to Greenpeace's flagship) was a "mind bomb" sailing across an electronic sea into the minds of the masses.

		Eco-activism has a problem: an admission from one of its founding fathers, Robert Hunter, that just as much as a global realization that environmentally, "as a species, we have already run out of places to run to" is needed, the mirror has to be turned on oneself as well.
		Robert Hunter engages in a bracing and unabashed jeremiad.
		Though Hunter sympathizes with the social and economic devastation that followed the fisheries' collapse, he wonders why it was so easy for supposedly rational people to let immediate economic advantage override their clearly perceived, long-term interests.

	CBC News - Viewpoint: Martin O'Malley
		Hunter dropped out of school in Grade 10, but at the Tribune we regarded him as an intellectual, steeped not only in Greek mythology but in all manner of scholarly stuff.
		Hunter called these staged events “mind-bombs,” inspired by the thoughts of media savant Marshall McLuhan, perhaps also by U.S. social activist Saul Alinsky, who used a form of intellectual jujitsu to turn the heft of the powerful against themselves.
		Hunter ran for political office in 1991 for the Ontario Liberals but was scuppered by his own journalistic hyperbole.

	The Greenpeace to Amchitka « Terrain Magazine, Spring 2006 « Ecology Center
		The book by late journalist Robert Hunter, The Greenpeace to Amchitka, is no exception but it's probably more entertaining.
		Hunter, wondering at what point one has fulfilled an obligation, wryly considers titling the book, "Cop-out on the Way to Amchitka." The journey took 43 days, most en route.
		Today the international nonprofit that was born of the Amchitka protest celebrates Hunter, who died of prostate cancer last year, as the person who "invented Greenpeace." One can't help but wonder what the author who described the trip as being "as much about ego as ecology" would have to say to that.

	WIRED 2.05: DIY Cash
		When a ragged-trousered band of draft dodgers, journalists, yippies, Trotskyites and Maoists gathered on the Canadian west coast at the back end of the 1960s to start the Don't Make A Wave Committee, their idea was to "bear witness" to events they objected to, as Quakers have done since the 17th century.
		Robert Hunter, a journalist and one of the Committee's founders, summed up the heady spirit in The Greenpeace Chronicle: "We saw it as a media war.
		In the heyday of mass television one man could, in Hunter's words, "demand the attention of the world." In the future, it may be impossible for anyone to make such demands.

		At age 18, Hunter, cofounder of Greenpeace, went winter camping in the Canadian woods and would have frozen to death if a Huron Indian hadn't appeared as though in answer to a prayer.
		Once Hunter became active in the radical environmental movement, similarly serendipitous and propitious meetings with Native Americans continued to occur at key moments, a boon he links to his mother's Indian heritage.
		In fact, it was a picture of Bob Hunter and Paul Watson in a Zodiac zooming in front of a Soviet whaling boat's harpoon cannon that awakened me to environmental activism.
