Wen Bo helped found Green Peace's Beijing office and went on to become the Beijing-based Co-Director of Pacific Environment's China Program.[1] He has studied, lived and worked in, besides China, South Korea and Japan, and thus has a comparative understanding of environmental problems, activism, and governance in these countries.[2] He's frequently interviewed and profiled by major international news medias such as Time magazine,[3] Radio Free Asia,[4] San Francisco Chronicle,[5] the Financial Times,[6] etc.[7]
