 “Environmentalism
and Its Consequences” - By Bonner R. Cohen, Senior Fellow,
National Center for Public Policy Research, Washington, D.C.,
Tenth Annual National Conference on Private Property Rights (PRFA,
Albany, N.Y., October 14, 2006)
In the world of environmentalism, human beings who live in
rural areas are creatures that disturb the environment. But there
is no such thing as the balance of nature, because nature is
always changing. To get big money, the environmentalists tapped
into the foundations, which are instruments of capitalism, radically
transforming them over the past two or three decades. American
environmental groups receive $9.6 million daily in donations.

 “The
Pleistocene Park Project—Removing Civilization from North
America” - By Robert J. Smith, Adjunct Environmental
Scholar, Competitive Enterprise Institute, Speech to the Ninth
Annual National Conference on Private Property Rights (PRFA,
Albany, N.Y., October 22, 2005)
Environmental scholars proposed in August 2005 to restore
the ecosystem and all the large animals that roamed North America
at the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age, replacing extinct mammals
with Asian and African counterparts, including elephants, lions,
cheetahs, camels, wild horses and a giant tortoise, while eliminating
human beings from ten states from Canada to Mexico, from the
east edge of the Rockies to just west of the Mississippi River.
This is just the latest of radical environmental proposals that
are viewed as credible and explain what the environmental leadership
is about.
