The environmental movement loses a champion with the passing of Phil Clapp, a respected environmental activist who led the National Environmental Trust for years.
Philip Clapp was a powerful force for action on environmental issues from drinking water quality and over-fishing to global warming and the protection of wilderness. He led the National Environmental Trust for 14 years. Kevin Knobloch, head of the Union for Concerned Scientists, offers this tribute.
