environmentalism woes

And that's why some have a problem with environmentalism.  b/c it seems anti-human at the cost of glorifying nature (and one only needs to look at Animal Planet or the Discovery Channel to see the ugly side of Mother Nature).  Take population growth, for example.  I care very much for the environment but by no means will I say that people must become less so that the environment can be sustained.  Many of the arguments that I have read on enviro websites logically lead to the absurd conclusion that a person should just commit suicide if they want to have the least amt of impact on the environment.  Is there not room in the environmental movement to see humans as resources that can better the world around them?  Indeed, bring out the good of nature- like desigining beautiful nature parks, organic farming, etc.  

Sorry to sound preachy but this point really annoys me about the green movement as a whole.  But it doesn't stop me from caring for the environment!On Repeat after me: Humans are part of the environment posted 3 years, 4 months ago 18 Responses
