Baha'i Blogcast with Halldor Thorgeirsson

16 January 2020

If you want to get to know better one of the members of the IEF Governing Board, Halldor Thorgeirsson of Iceland, Rainn Wilson has recorded a podcast with him on his Baha'i Blog. You can listen to it at

Hear how a boy from a remote Icelandic fishing village discovered the Baha'i Faith, was drawn by his love of nature to become a biologist studying the carbon cycle, was sent by his government to negotiate the Kyoto Protocol, and ultimately joined the Secretariat of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, helping to organize the negotiations that led to the Paris Agreement on Climate Change in 2015. Now retired back in Iceland, Halldor is a wonderful addition to the IEF Governing Board helping to guide our organization forward in these challenging times.
