From what I've seen as a student of environmental studies, it isn't even close to the radical, granola-munching liberal stereotypes that people like to throw at it.
THE environment affects ALL of us.

I don't really care who he is, his message is valid. I do not think he discredited the environmental movement, but shared what's happened to it, and how it has been co-opted for a corporate / political means to control and use society to further their profits and ideals.
I don't think Republicans are anti-environmental. I think they are anti-socialist big government controlled society... Well, the old conservative Republicans that is. Neocons are the same as socialists.
The Global warming scheme has been proven to be false science when it tries to connect CO2 rising with causing Global warming. It's data, records, models, and even physics arguments have been proven false. Yes, there is climate change here on earth, just as there is on all the other planets. Man is not the cause of that change and has very little real effect on the climate. We can no more control the climate than we could stop Mt. Vesuvius from blowing up. We need to have transparency in science, data analysis and gathering and we need to work on real solutions to pollution, good drinking water, and healthy food for all as well as free energy. If we do these things, we will truly be a better people.
Imagine if all the money we spent on pseudo science went to these things how much better our world would be.
