The sad thing is that because of this Christians who obviously do have a concern for the environment feel that they cannot get involved. We are charged in the bible to be custodians and also to be master of nature but feel we cannot get involved in conservation because of the are well out left wing wackos and obviously do not want to be linked or associated with them.

IMHO because of this true commonsense conservation is not being done because conservatives are reluctant to get involved and almost feel they have to come out against it.

A crazy sad situation.

There ARE some conservative environmental groups, you just don't hear much about them.

Nobody wants dirty air or water. It's not a matter of being a good environmental steward, it's a matter of overreacting to environmental issues to the point of the absurd. Arsenic in water limits, that Bush repealed after Clinton tried to sneak it through, is a good example. Arsenic is there normally and the amount causes no harm to man or beast. But, Democrats started in with claims of our trying to poison people to make it an issue. Democrats, and leftists everywhere, could care less about economic viability of their positions, they want to force compliance on everyone on their issues.
