Just came across these interesting views:
1. First of all, progressives and particularly feminists mistakenly conflate environmentalism and humanism.
But they are different: Humanism is founded on Christian beliefs, they believe that humans are special and everyone deserves dignity.
Whereas environmentalists view humans as bad for the planet, that there are too many of us, and probably the best thing for the planet would be if we'd never existed.
2. Secondly, Nazis were die hard greenies and enviromentalists.
What pushed their doctrine towards the extreme was the fact that they practiced a pagan, anti-Christian environmentalism. They rejected the notion that humans are created in God’s image, and that the weak should be protected.

My comments:
Does this remind you of anyone?
Greta Gundberg, more specifically some of the things that her advisers are telling her to say.
I agree with most of what she said, but I was struck by ‘her’ lack of empathy and even disgust of the (already impoverished) French,
who were protesting their dramatic drop in quality of living when Macron tried to make France go green..
