Been there, done that.
I believe a self-righteous liberal with a cause is
more dangerous than a 6 year old with a Play

True and the environment has been used by government to manipulate the Sheeple early on. FDR pulled off one of the biggest ones ever. He convinced congress that flooding the Tennessee Valley would stop soil erosion. It was bought hook line and sinker at the time. I've heard my dad talk about places like the river bottoms on the Holston River. Where are they? In Chattanooga perhaps? The natural flooding of the river didn't take them out. Full river banks running from the dams turbines did.
Now The Tennessee Valley Authority in it's ever increasing Mother Hen protection of the environment will fine you or can fine you $10,000 for driving on the lake bank. Never mind the fact it is barren and has an 80 foot plus yearly fluctuation level. As well the Tennessee Valley catches a lot of the Gulf Stream Air Current from Mexico. But who does the EPA say is destroying the environment? According to them it has to be the few in number steam powered coal fired power plants in the state.
