Self-Description:
Established in September 2000, the
Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation seeks to improve the quality of
life for future generations. The
Foundation’s science-based, results-driven orientation stems from
the principles and interests of Gordon and Betty Moore. The
Foundation operates proactively in three specific areas of
focus—environmental conservation, science, and the San Francisco Bay
Area—where a significant and measurable impact can be achieved.
Distinct Initiatives have been created within these three Program
areas. An Initiative employs a portfolio of grants that are expected
to help achieve targeted, large-scale outcomes in a specific time
frame.
Actual:
Systematically opposes fossil fuels; has donated millions to destroy
the oil, gas and coal industries in America.
In 2005, Moore Foundation
gave the Theodore
Roosevelt Conservation Partnership a $600,000 grant "To change
the current course of energy development on public lands." The
intent was to stop all drilling for natural gas and oil.
 Origin of the Wealth:
Gordon Moore
is co-founder of Intel Corporation and Chairman Emeritus of the
Corporation's Board of Directors. Prior to Intel, Gordon co-founded
Fairchild Semiconductor in 1957. A California native, Moore earned
his B.S. in chemistry from the University of California at Berkeley
and his Ph.D. in Chemistry and Physics from the California Institute
of Technology. In 1968 he co-founded Intel, serving initially as
executive vice president. He became president and chief executive
officer in 1975 and held that post until elected chairman and chief
executive officer in 1979. In 1987 he relinquished the CEO title and
was named chairman emeritus in 1997.
Moore
received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest
civilian honor, from George W. Bush in 2002. He received the
National Medal of Technology from President George H. W. Bush in
1990. He is currently the chairman of the executive committee for
Conservation International.
