So, you're saying, only the allegedly "anti-enviornment" people are doing 
things for their own personal good?

1)  "Damamge to the enviornment" isn't reality.  It's a buch of chickens 
running around with their heads cut off.  NOTHING stays the same.  If it did, 
it would be the dinosaurs watching "People Park."

Example: CFCs.  Supposedly, CFC's are ruining the ozone layer, and have to be 
stopped before the entire human race becomes blackened to a crisp.  So much 
pressure and eco-doodoo is said that the mighty Congress outlaws CFC's and 
forces the people to buy expensive, unreliable "no CFC" air conditioned cars, 
and makes it expensive and difficult to repair older A/C units.

Then what happens?  Mt. Pinutubo explodes in a fiery volcano, and 
scientists... REAL scientists, not the "we think, therefore it must be" 
eco-wannabe-scientists, take some measurements, and conclude that just the ONE 
volcanic eruption has put 10 times more CFC's into the atmosphere than mankind 
has in the however many years of existence mankind has.

But the "green" movement quickly works to bury such valid reports, since, 
after all, they would like complete and total fools and morons if it was 
widely published to the general public.

oh yes, there is a second point...

2) Ever notice how eco-people always seem to enjoy what their aims are?  For 
S.21, it's "I like the serene desert.  It's one of the things I go to the 
desert for."  In other words, eco-people are simply trying to have their way.  
"Saving the enviornment is simply their excuse.  If the "greens" like the 
dense forrests, well, then, they'll find some psuedo-scientists that will help 
make them look good when they say "We must leave the forrests alone."  They 
don't care about the enviornment, nor have they really studided the situation, 
or else they would have known that leaving the forrest as it was would lead to 
the biggest fires seen in modern history, doing far more damage than logging 
or any other activity could have done in one or 2 hundred years.

Certainly, eco-people have pointed out and worked against things that are bad, 
like demanding more stringent controls against oil spills and so forth.  But 
they have taken that and extended it into a very Hitlerian vision that they 
are the only true visionaries of the planet, and they must stop at nothing to 
force their views (which, in their twisted minds, are always right) upon the 
rest of the world.

Radical enviornmentalists MUST be shown as the fools they are, the damamge 
they have wrought on this planet displayed, so that the insanity can stop.
