Ecology Wars : Enviromentalism as if People Matter

This book is about ecology wars. Ecology wars are fought in legislatures, courtrooms and the hearts and minds of men and women. Keep one fact in mind while you read this book: Ecology isn't environmentalism. Nobody seems to notice, but ecology is a science. Environmentalism is a social movement. an ecologist is a qualified professional in ecology, the science of how organisms interrelate with their environments. An environmentalist is anyone who claims to be one. This a crucial distinction to keep in mind.
