"The environmental movement, which many desperately hoped would succeed, did not keep any of it's promises…
It was hijacked by ideas and values that often destroyed the very things it sought to save…as another
manifestation of the Puritan ethic, also represents a reaction to the excessive materialism in modern life…
bloated by wealth, mainstream environmental groups have become bureaucracies not unlike the public
agencies they pledged to police. Occupying high-rent offices in the nation's capital far from "ecosystems"
they promised to defend, and heavily staffed with well paid lawyers, these organizations… spread scare
stories to stimulate public generosity and embrace litigation as a way of life."
— In A Dark Wood, Alston Chase

Killing people; the reduction of the world’s population by any means possible, is the ultimate goal of the Greens. They don’t care if millions die from malaria or lack of adequate medical care or die from famines or die in the gulags of communist nations.
From Red to Green
"The green movement was formed by intellectuals for intellectuals. And this brings us right back to their hatred of capitalism, or should I say economic growth... The Greens, like the Nazis before them, are inordinate, i.e., there is no limit to their demands. Each demand, when met, will be followed by more demands. They are only interested in total and unconditional surrender."
