WA Ping Do environazis all use the same name?
What I have realized is that global warming and the war on carbon are mostly just catch all issues that the left uses to bring in a lot of otherwise disinterested support for more local issues.
The battle against the coal terminal and coal trains is a perfect example. The real objections to the coal terminal and trains were local and very serious but the approval system was designed to shut out all local opposition and ram the proposals through without any real consideration of the negative impacts on WA residents. Global warming was a last resort for the environmentalists and it has worked to slow the process down.
In the beginning of the battle no one wanted to mention global warming, not even the left. The only people talking about global warming were the college students, who had no vested interest in the area of impact.
