environmentalist

these idiots are also part of the blame for the increases in prices of everything
since the environmentalist democrats subsidized corn for ethanol fuel (which takes much more energy than oil), farmers now grow corn to sell as fuel instead of food and also won't grow other crops. the environmentalists also won't let us drill in alaska when it's rich in oil.

Hippies who make love to trees in an attempt to stop the expansion of Stansted Airport. They try to stop it from becoming the biggest airport in the world, what we really need. They should be gassed.

environmenta-lisp

Speech impediment suffered by or sometimes affected by socialist activists of the male persuasion.
Not all of these males are homosexual, but are effeminate or campy enough to acquire this impediment either by association or willful affectation.

It is the unofficial dialect of the male liberal.
1. The guy from PETA spoke with such a heavy environmenta-lisp it was hard to take him serious about saving the endangered silver speckled salamander.

2. My son left for college sounding like a man, but recently came home for a visit spouting jibberish about the evils of capitalism with the most effeminate environmenta-lisp I had ever heard.

environmentalist

"Environmentalist" - short definition.

A counter-culture or a sub-culture, a person, well-meaning, and varied in degrees of dedication towards the theorized problems on Earth and the environment.

What most environmentalists have in common is a communal, casual concern through an individual to almost religious zeal, roughly based upon the 1960's industrial and cultural backlash. Such persons can be as moderate as a person who occasionally donates to an environmentalist fund and generally agrees with such notions, to extremists such as Greenpeace and the Earth Liberation Front, which have a history of interference and even endagerment of it's opponents. Many environmentalists are classified as being "liberal" or "democrat," in the United States, with a few fringe groups on the contrary to that generalization.
Such popular ideals of current environmentalism is endangered animal recognition, global warming, deforestation and ozone layer depletion. There is a small U.S. political party dedicated to generalized environmentalist organization, the "Green Party," known as "Greens" and "Greenies," headed by Ralph Nader. While the party is growing in strength, it's standpoint has much more been attributed towards "swinging" the vote either for or against the other two major American political parties, Republicans (conservative) and Democrats (liberal), et al.

Worldwide, they currently have to battle politics, science, and opinion based upon cabinets and legislation, and private-sector funding which battles both sides of any given issue. Their biggest enemies are industry and economics from mining, fishing, ranching, farming, and oil production, right-wing politics and the so-called "science community." The lack of solid scientific proof on either side of any of their issues has perhaps not given overall credibility towards their plight, which largely makes people "environmentalist" in term only, or less likely to take up such a position. This has perhaps weakened their numbers, along with a generally non-results oriented way of politicking, where proof of their success is hard to determine.

Their success is largely in such groups as the World Wildlife Fund, which is one of the largest wild animal protective agencies, creation of the government's Environmental Protection Agency (the EPA), and recently, Earth Share, a centralized organization which places emphasis on organizing major environmental causes and groups.

Regardless the opinion of environmentalists, or their naysayers, their future will largely be based upon political trend, societal awareness, science favor, and long-term earthly consequences. Any factor could enhance or eliminate such belief and belonging to this group.
