While in Southern California “Doc” accepted the invitation to facilitate the Iris Forum, the first multipartisan environmental think tank. “We brought Encinitas’ residents and international scientists together to establish sea-wall policies; we impacted truth in organic labeling; and Californians are much better informed as to the real meaning behind Mendocino County’s ban on GMOs since we issued our ‘Synergy Statement.’” –Tad Simmons, Co-founder Iris Forum& CEO, GreenSource Corporation
