Who's the Climate Liar?

Did Patrick Moore, a Doubter of Anthropogenic Climate Change, Co-Found Greenpeace?
 
President Trump thinks so.
Patrick Moore, co-founder of Greenpeace: “The whole climate crisis is not only Fake News, it’s Fake Science. There is no climate crisis, there’s weather and climate all around the world, and in fact carbon dioxide is the main building block of all life.” @foxandfriends Wow!

Replying to
Patrick Moore was not a co-founder of Greenpeace. He does not represent Greenpeace. He is a paid lobbyist, not an independent source.
Snopes says:
Moore’s anti-climate-change statement on “Fox and Friends” is a bad-faith argument, and attributing such statements to a “Greenpeace co-founder” is factually inaccurate.

However,  a web page quote directly from the Greenpeace website list Patrick Moore as a co-founder

So who is caught in this lie?:
