	Environmentalist's Agenda (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		According to a $700 million official study, "There is no evidence of a general or unusual decline of forests in the U.S. or Canada due to acid rain." As for environmentalists' pressures to come to a panicky conclusion one of the study's authors said, "Yes, there were political pressures.
		The media treats environmentalists, who've been wrong time after time as gods of the truth.
		Our continued belief in environmentalist mistakes, manipulation, lies and fear mongering leads us to establish public policies that kill people and reduce standards of living such as CAFÉ standards that downsize autos and cause unnecessary highway deaths, energy saving regulations that produce airtight sick buildings and the international push for birth control.

	Environmentalism: A Modern Idolatry
		Although, most committed environmentalists would claim to be much too sophisticated to be following in the footsteps of some ancient pagan or animistic religion, their new "progressive environmentalism," in reality, is simply a re-packaging of old pantheistic errors combined with a much more dangerous set of public policy proposals than previous versions of environmentalism.
		Environmentalists generally do not like to talk about the subject of economic costs, claiming that it is an immoral subject, and that one cannot simply put a price on a clean, healthy, safe, or beautiful environment (with these characteristics being themselves defined by environmentalism -- which of course imposes a utopian standard).
		Environmentalists often claim that there are "externalities" (negative side effects or "spillovers") in society as a result of economic and industrial activity.

	Environmentalist/Environmental Scientist
		Nearly all our respondents said their desire to better the world was key in their becoming environmentalists, and many said that even if their jobs didn’t pay, they would still do environmental work.
		Not-for-profit environmentalist companies, account for 70 percent of the industry, engage in more aggressive campaigns to educate the public about environmental causes and often work in education campaigns on college campuses, where much of the scientific work is done.
		Those who leave the profession are most likely to do so out of frustration with the slow pace of progress rather than a repudiation of the environmentalist agenda.

	Environmentalist Gridlock by Jason Hoskin -- Capitalism Magazine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		With the philosophical underpinnings, and murderous track record of the environmentalist movement, it is not surprising that the environmentalists have turned their venomous hatred toward the automobile.
		The more honest environmentalist will admit they are willing to demand sacrifices of man for the sake of the non-human concerns such as endangered species, trees, or to preserve the natural landscape.
		But often environmentalists claim they are motivated by concern for the human health hazard brought about by increased pollution due to more extensive automobile use.

	Responsible Creation Care - Part 2 - Lessons from Past Environmental Crises
		Environmentalist groups like Greenpeace quickly raised the alarm, warning that "the current ozone crisis … is not only a matter of human survival, but that of the survival of all of life."
		Many historians believe the modern environmentalist movement began in 1962 when Rachel Carson published "Silent Spring." In that book she warned that the pesticide DDT was wreaking ecological havoc on America.
		Environmentalists often disagree, and this leads them to embrace unsound scientific positions without proper consideration because they already believe them to be true.

	Looking forward: A 21st century environmental agenda
		We think a fair reading of The Skeptical Environmentalist is that it is simplistic, vulnerable to many of the claims of distortion that Lomborg levies against the environmental movement, and vastly uninformed about the real state of the environment and of the environmental agenda.
		A central element in the new agenda is a belief in transparency and accountability for corporations, for governments, and for environmental organizations themselves.
		In particular, the new environmental agenda seeks to hold governments accountable for providing the public with information about the environment, a voice in decisions that affect the environment, and access to justice when their environmental rights are not respected.

		Environmentalist concerns have moved centre stage in most major religious traditions of late and Buddhism is no exception to this rule.
		The classical treatment of causation fails to resolve successfully the tension between symmetry and asymmetry of relations and this has tended to mean that attempts to inject a telos, or sense of purpose, into the world are likely to founder.
		In the first place, few of the Buddha's injunctions can be used unambiguously to support environmentalist ends [35] and in the second, the dysteleological character of Buddhist thought militates against anything that could be construed as injecting the concept of an "end" or "purpose" into the world.

	Project 21 Black Conservative New Visions Editorial: Elitist "Environmental Justice" Bad News for Minorities
		The environmentalist agenda is often pitted against the bread-and-butter issues facing most Americans.
		They support regulating American industry to reduce the emission of alleged "greenhouse gases" that may or may not be resulting in a dramatic heating of the atmosphere (there's no conclusive proof of this theory, and many reputable scientists scoff at the greens' scare stories).
		Environmentalist support of the Kyoto Protocol, a UN plan to "reduce" global warming, reveals a perverse commitment to minority well-being.

	Quantas São e Onde Estão as Instituições Ambientalistas (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		In 1992, Mater Natura, an environmental organization from the South of Brazil, identified almost 2000 organizations claiming to be environmentalist.
		In other words, the Brazilian environmentalist movement is broader than might be imagined, given the number of environmentalist organizations.
		Registration on the CNEA enables environmentalist organizations to participate in important councils, like CONAMA (the National Council on the Environment), on which 7 NGOs have seats, the National Fund for the Environment (5 seats) and the National Commission for Sustainable Development Policies and Brazilian Agenda 21 (2 seats).

	ecoNOT.com -- Individualism, not Environmentalism
		Most people think of themselves as "environmentalists." But by that term, they mean something far different -- and far more innocent -- than do the most prominent philosophers, founders, and leaders of the modern environmentalist movement.
		Typically, the person who calls himself an "environmentalist" is really just a nature-loving "conservationist." Appreciating the earth's natural beauty and bounty, he is understandably concerned about trash, noise, pollution, and poisons.
		Their basic agenda, therefore, is to stop the "assault" and "onslaught" of human activity: to place every possible impediment to man's further development of the earth and its resources.

	Justifying the Environmentalist Agenda
		A prominent theme of the environmentalist literature (and the work of environmental ethicists like Callicott) has been that a holistic environmental ethic is necessary to provide strong support for these goals, that neither an individualist nor anthropocentric view can do it.
		Note that insofar as both Singer's and Regan's views are axiologically anthropocentric, the defense of the environmentalist agenda given here works for their views as well.
		Items #1 and #2 on the environmentalist agenda are related in various ways to tenets #4 and #5 above.

	Penn State's Green Peaceniks
		The Peace Studies program’s environmentalist agenda finds yet starker expression in the emphasis that it places on “sustainability.” This alarmist school of thought, which enjoys wide currency among the epigones of the environmentalist movement, holds that the earth’s resources are under assault.
		They are also obliged to adapt their lives to the prescriptions put forth by their environmentalist professors.
		In keeping with the environmentalist movement’s hostility to industrial agriculture, the center features a solar greenhouse designed to promote “healthy food production and ecosystem management.” That healthy food production is actually another name for an all-vegetarian diet, the preferred diet of environmentalist activists, is underscored by another program administered by the CFS.

	Reason: Green with Ideology: The hidden agenda behind the "scientific" attacks on Bjørn Lomborg’s ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The Skeptical Environmentalist obviously should be held to high standards of accuracy, but to insist that it read like a scientific paper is both specious and disingenuous.
		The book is essentially a response to such popular environmentalist tracts as the State of the World report and the reams of misinformation disseminated by Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth, the Union of Concerned Scientists, The Ecologist, the Turning Point Project, Grist, Wild Earth, and the rest of the sprawling eco-media propaganda complex.
		Ideological environmentalists have simple-mindedly applied concepts from zoology and biology to human societies to create a kind of theory of political ecology.

	Maine Woods Coalition Press Release
		The economy and private property rights in Maine are under unprecedented assault by the national environmentalist movement as millions of dollars are poured into a campaign to change forever Maine's traditional system of Constitutionally protected private property rights and independent way of life.
		Moreover, documented abusive environmentalist political activism elsewhere in the nation shows ominously what Maine is in store for as environmentalist leaders and their funding move into the northeast to copy here what they have done to the people of the Pacific Northwest, Alaska, and other resource-dependent rural areas of the country.
		Mainers need to realize the extent to which the political activism to grab land in Maine is being funded and orchestrated from outside the state by national lobbyists backed by wealthy foundations and corporations.

		For example, the issues of global warming, clean air, and stricter environmental regulations -- all issues that have been championed by the "radical left" and more mainstream environmentalists in the past -- are now being embraced, to a certain extent, by some in the Christian community.
		That is because environmentalists have been actively working to find common causes with evangelicals on issues like mercury pollution -- issues that relate to family health and the health of unborn children.
		It is a movement that has taken hold slowly, because not everyone in the evangelical community is ready to go along with the environmentalist agenda.

	Environmentalist's Agenda
		Before we accept environmentalists' claims that the sky is falling, let's survey some of their past predictions.
		Political satirist H.L. Mencken warned, "The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed, and hence clamorous to be led to safety, by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." The environmentalist agenda is more sinister.
		Occasionally, environmentalists spill the beans and reveal their true agenda.

	The Ayn Rand Institute: Bush Energy Plan Caves In--to Environmentalism
		The environmentalists have a very clear "national energy policy." They are anti-energy.
		Everyone knows the environmentalist agenda: they are unalterably opposed to any use of nuclear power, any new pipelines or refineries, any large-scale method of generating power.
		What we are facing is not a sudden cut-off of energy from abroad, as in the 1970s, but something more insidious: a slow strangulation from within, as the environmentalists shut down the nation's energy infrastructure, plant by plant, fuel by fuel.

		Preferring to minimize its failure to stop the nuclear test, the organization and its sympathizers seized on the “Amchitka action” to announce Greenpeace as an environmentalist force to be reckoned with.
		What Thornton and his Greenpeace cohorts chose to ignore was the demonstrable fact that chlorine, far from the uniquely dangerous threat of their imaginings, was one of the most important public health innovations in history, not least for its role in purifying and disinfecting water.
		Lomborg noted that, Greenpeace’s doom-saying notwithstanding, the world’s environmental resources were not being depleted; that the disastrous consequences of global warming were greatly exaggerated; and that the continued technological development of the world would improve the quality of life for all people without ushering in the environmental apocalypse long forecast by Greenpeace with Nostradamus-like conviction.

		The Skeptical Environmentalist may be the most complete refutation of what Lomborg refers to as the "Litany," his name for the chronic complaints of environmentalists who believe humanity is on the course to an inevitable environmental holocaust -- a future of water shortages, starvation, mass extinctions, pollution and rampant disease.
		Lomborg's move to put environmental considerations on the same level as others, such as the prosperity of humanity, threatens the belief that the environmentalist agenda is more important than all others because it's free from individualistic self-interest.
		The pendulum has begun to swing back against the environmentalist movement because more people are beginning to cast a critical eye at the junk science used to support their agenda.

		Tu B'Shvat, the 15th day of the month of Shvat in the religious calendar, has been deconstructed in recent years and converted into a holiday of ecology and environmentalist political agitprop.

		And Jewish asslibs (assimilationist liberals) in the United States use it as theological ammunition to disarm anyone critiquing environmentalist fanatics.

		Politicians who oppose the environmentalist agenda are characterized as industry shills who are corrupt or indifferent to environmental despoliation.
		And environmentalists are predisposed to perceive that things are getting worse, and to support policies that retard the very economic growth that is necessary if environmental conditions are to continue to get better.
