He has served on many other volunteer boards, including several terms on the executive of the Writers Union of Canada. A distinguished educator, Dr. Cameron taught at several universities and was the first Dean of the School of Community Studies at Cape Breton University. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of London, as well as honorary doctorates from the University of Kings College and Cape Breton University. In 2012 he was appointed to both the Order of Canada and the Order of Nova Scotia.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have recently been appointed the first Farley Mowat Chair in Environment at Cape Breton University. It&#8217;s a direct result of my environmental work, particularly The Green Interview, and it&#8217;s part of an evolving relationship between TGI and CBU that now includes a highly innovative online\/on-campus course on environmental rights.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tUPF Support<\/p>\n<p>Silver Donald Cameron is one of the main supporters of United Progressive Fraternity, having provided permission to use audio quotes from Dame Jane Goodall, David Suzuki, Alanna Mitchell, James Lovelock and Satish Kumar from TheGreenInterview series in the album &#8216;Planetary Overload Part 1: Loss&#8217;.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>UPF would like to express their extreme gratitude to Dr. Cameron for his strong support and contributions to the music project.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_64606\"  width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"  data-origwidth=\"1280\" data-origheight=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hNdqfUf8Xzs?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=3&loop=0&rel=0&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=1&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tRelevance<\/p>\n<p>Air, water, food \u2014 these are the sources of life. Without them, we die. And in most nations \u2013 more than 180 nations, in fact \u2013 citizens are legally entitled to these essential elements of life.<\/p>\n<p>But not in Canada or the United States. And that\u2019s what the Green Rights multi-media project is all about: the human right to a healthy environment, and Mother Nature\u2019s right to be respected and protected. The citizenship of North Americans is hobbled because we don\u2019t have these green rights. Canadians and Americans literally don\u2019t know what they\u2019re missing.<\/p>\n<p>So we\u2019re telling the dramatic stories of how citizens use those rights in other countries \u2013 and are fighting for them here. Green rights are among humanity\u2019s most powerful tools for protecting and repairing the natural world. <a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"https:\/\/thegreeninterview.com\/films\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Learn more&#8230;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tPromo and Contact<\/p>\n<p>To access all 97 feature-length interviews \u2013 and the companion documentary\u00a0film &#8211; consider\u00a0<strong><a style=\"color: #000080;\" href=\"https:\/\/thegreeninterview.com\/memberships\/pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">joining<\/a><\/strong> with a membership.<\/p>\n<p><em>Research, travel, recording and editing video is expensive, and we want you to consider supporting those costs by subscribing to our monthly service.
