Then, as a freelance photojournalist, he sailed the South Seas on a 31-foot trimaran named Celerity until 1985. He co-founded Green Islands and the Save Georgia Straight Alliance, and aimed to expose illegal logging practices.

He then served five months in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait as a member of a three-man environmental emergency response team and made the documentary documentary Eco War. In January 1998, he made the first of eight guest appearances on the radio talk-show Coast To Coast to describe a phenomenon later popularized as chemtrails.
