The first<\/a> was called “The Limits to Environmentalism” and the second<\/a>, “Is Environmentalism anti-science?” This is a theme I’ve\u00a0explored<\/a> at Collide-a-Scape which, as one conservative reader has noticed<\/a>, “provokes less than friendly responses from the environmentally correct.”<\/p>\n

More importantly, Pearce joins a brigade of prominent, refreshing voices, such as Andy Revkin<\/a>, Mark Lynas<\/a>, Stewart Brand<\/a>, and Emma Marris<\/a>, who also are challenging entrenched, dogmatic positions in the green movement.<\/p>\n
