It’s not that liking a clean environment is bad. Or liking your race. Liking and love aren’t the problem. It’s the willingness to kill and lie to get the clean environment or the good of the “race.” Ignoring God’s law and putting creature and creation as the ultimate and only good with the State as the means to the utopia. Utopians suck.
What needs to take place is to remove the fascism from environmentalism. As far as liking your own race, it is perhaps better to say, “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

All Utopias are Dystopias as a Utopia cannot exist by sheer definition.
Socialistic utopias, green or otherwise, have borrowed heavily from Jewish-Christian millennial views, but have discarded the spiritual nature of such a Millennium because of their zealous secularism. Hitler’s 1,000 year Reich is a good case in point, but Marxism is just as apocalyptic. In other words, it is one thing for a philosopher to contemplate about an utopia like Plato’s Republic, but quite another when political idealists start behaving like social engineers to bring it all about. It creates nothing but wanton destruction of people’s lives, all for a utopia that they will never be able to attain.
