   “it should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism   
   (or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans,   
   about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and   
   the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a   
   'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,'   
   a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for   
   rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet   
   things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that   
   you live neither in Joseph Stalin’s Communist era, nor in the Orwellian   
   utopia of 1984.”
