George Carlin makes some interesting points about the state of environmentalism in todays world...
"...environmentalists don't give a shit about the planet. They don't care about the planet. Not in the abstract they don't. Not in the abstract they don't. You know what they're interested in? A clean place to live. Their own habitat. They're worried that some day in the future, they might be personally inconvenienced."
"Let me tell you about engangered species... Saving engangered species is just one more arrogant attempt by humas to control nature. It is arrogant medling, It is what got is what got is in trabble in the first place, doesn't anybody understand that?"
