Wen Bo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wen Bo (温波) is a Chinese environmentalist based in Beijing. Born and raised in the coastal city of Dalian in Northeast China, Wen became interested in environmental activism after watching anti-whaling actions by Greenpeace on TV. He later became a journalist with China Environment News and began reporting on China's many environmental problems.

Wen helped found Greenpeace's Beijing office and went on to become the Beijing-based co-director of Pacific Environment's China Program.[1] He has studied, lived and worked in China, South Korea and Japan, and thus has a comparative understanding of environmental problems, activism, and governance in these countries.[2] He's frequently interviewed and profiled by major international news medias such as Time magazine,[3] Radio Free Asia,[4] San Francisco Chronicle,[5] the Financial Times,[6] etc.[7]
