Bill,

The radical environmentalist have made a marketing error. They have hitched their wagon to 'Global Warming' so that the Green movement and Global Warming are now tied together in the mind of the general population. I understand why they did it - simple message, plausible enough and quite scary on the surface. As the 'science' around Global Warming looses credibility so will the entire Green movement.

The serious thinkers on ecology have already distanced themselves from the idea of Global Warming for this very reason. There is a vital pragmatic enivornmental movement emerging. The trouble with the Greens is they conflate their anti-capitalism world view with their pro-environment ideas. You are right to call them religous. The solutions they admire are very theocratic in nature.

Paul
