Do I hate environmentalists, or those that are truly helping things in a realistic view and way? Do I think nothing should be done or we have no problems?
NO!! I have a real problem with wacko, anti capitalists who portray themselves as kind and caring environmentalists. One you can deal with is Dr. Patrick Moore who was one of the founders of Greenpeace and was a full time environmental activist. He broke ranks with Greenpeace after 15 years because in the mid 80’s the environmental movement had sensationalized things instead of using science and facts.
He is FOR Genetic Enhancement of food crops. He is FOR Salmon farming, one of the most nutritious fish. He is FOR Vinyl, yes that is Plastic. He is FOR Hydro, Wind and Nuclear power generation. He is FOR the use of forest, yes wood. Trees, the most renewable resource on earth.
I do not agree with everything his site has to say, but reasonable non agreements creates reasonable solutions.

It's getting to where the careless flingin' around of the word ENVIRONMENTALIST makes me want to PUKE. My training and experience in natural resource management makes me more of an ENVI'RONMENTALIST than most of the numb scull tree huggin' idiots out there who have a bug up their butts to CONSERVE something. They'd do the world a favor if they'd quit breathing the air they're claimin' we're pollutin' so terribly. These well meaning, but uninformed, yahoos who holler "save a tree" need to know people make a living growing trees for them to have the vast amounts of toilet paper they obviously need.

April 25, 2008 at 3:13 p.m.I try to teach my boys to respect nature, but we darn sure don't put nature above man.
