That's why I say there are four types of environmentalists/environmentalism: 1) Profit driven ("green sells") 2) Elitist agenda driven 3) Blind followers on the feel good bandwagon 4) Real environmentalists who use a balanced cost/benefit approach One thing that really bugs me is that there's a big vocal environmentalist in my college who also drives a gas guzzling SUV and produces most of the wasted, unread printed material in the college.
