Patrick shares his journey, which illustrates that it’s not always a straight line and the
trip along the way can teach valuable lessons and perspectives.
His observations and practices, driven by human rights and environmental advocacy, coupled with pragmatic economic solutions are examples of how as he says, we can innovate our way out of environmental problems.
