I can see where this is heading...

...In the same direction as the "Alternative to War" question.

Find me any major policy issue from the mainstream environmental movement for which their recommended solution is NOT a massive increase in centralized government control, either on a national or international basis.

Here's a helpful list to get you started:

Greenpeace. Friends of the Earth. The Green Party. Sierra Club. WWF. Oh, heck, here's a whole shitload of them, with web connections.

Surely there must be just one example in all this where a policy position advocating less government power over the individual might lurk.

And hey, now that you bring it up, find a person in a leadership position in the modern environmental movement that is not a leftist. And a radical one at that.

I don't give a rat's ass about the rank and file, and the folks who return their little Greenpeace envelope with a check every year. They aren't calling the shots in the seats of government.
