Environmentalism Is A Fundamentalist Religion Steeped In Green Dogma
Today’s climate activists resemble nothing so much as a religious movement, with carbon the new devil’s spawn.
The green movement is increasingly wedded to a kind of carbon fundamentalism that is not only not realistic but will reduce living standards in the West and around the world.
And as with other kinds of religious fundamentalism, the climate hysteria is often overwrought and obviously so; a decade ago, the same activists predicted a planetary disaster by 2020 if the U.S. and China did not reduce their emissions by 80 percent—which of course never happened.
