On Behalf Of Environmentalists

[guohua]

In 2004, Nordhaus and Shellenberger, both long-time strategists for environmental groups, co-authored a controversial essay, "The Death of Environmentalism: Global Warming Politics in a Post-Environmental World." The paper argues that environmentalism is conceptually and institutionally incapable of dealing with climate change and should "die" so that a new politics can be born. The essay was debated.  

Mr. Shellenberger has been singing this tune for some time now. It would seem if you look at his his history that what he actually seeks is the limelight. Kind of a "Where's Waldo" for the zeitgeiest approach. He has thrown a ton of poo against the wall in hopes it sticks. His altruistic leanings in either direction seem suspect to me? A 2020 "look at me" approach seems to be in play.

Hmmmmmmm, You are probably correct, it is still all about his 15 minutes of fame and who's paying him (funding).

I wonder who pays more?
The Anti-Climate Change / Environmentalist Backers or the Climate-Change / Environmentalist / Sky is Falling, We're all going to Die in 12 Years Nutcase.
I think G. Soros has Deeper Pockets.
