Beware!

Dr Robin Zubrin speaks some sense into the environmentalism debate.

Antihumanism is not environmentalism, though it sometimes masquerades as such. Environmentalism, properly conceived, is an effort to apply practical solutions to real environmental problems, such as air and water pollution, for the purpose of making the world a better place for all humans to thrive in. Antihumanism, in contrast, rejects the goal of advancing the cause of mankind. Rather, it uses instances of inadvertent human damage to the environment as points of agitation to promote its fundamental thesis that human beings are pathogens whose activities need to be suppressed in order to protect a fixed ecological order with interests that stand above those of humanity.

The cultural mandate determines that we are to be stewards of this creation and that most definitely does not mean anti-human, therefore let us be careful of the syncretised perspectives that can so easily creep into our worldview.
I am constantly engaging with well intentioned individuals of faith who have been seduced by the 'Green' philosophy into becoming like those warned about in the aforementioned paragraph.
One of the most damaging side effects of this 'will to power' by a group of fanatics is, that real enviromental issues such as pollution, degradation, sustainability etc are abandoned in favour of Utopian dreams and mysanthropic impulses.
Be as wise as the serpent and as gentle as the dove.
