I suspect that a lot of people who support the environmental movement do so because they accept what they've been fed over the years by schools and the media. They simply haven't the inclination or personal strength to question what they are told. It is a religion.
Questioning is not the essence of religion or any secularity. I suppose you are happy with the thoughtless error Crighton makes to confuse bad thinking with good thinking. Vulgus vult decepi.
