I was wondering what you all think of environmentalism
I sometimes see an overlap between saving money and being "eco-friendly" as certain "waste" products are just unused potential raw material
It seems like the mainstream right is pretty "anti-environmentalism" which... kind of sounds weird and like some industrialized steps removed from being more of an agrarian society I guess
Things like climate change seem like a scam to distract people from more tangible environmental issues, things like:
-(actual waste like mentioned above)
-pollution, which causes diseases in people and corporations dodge paying for the clean-up. Corporations cause this actual problem of pollution and then conveniently offer political solutions of their choice to solve the problem they created (and also kind of try to lump these real problems into vague proposed problems like "climate change" which are less directly visible)
-proliferation of microplastics which harm our ecosystems and cause diseases in our bodies
-carcinogenic additives to foods, whether they are pesticides or artificial flavoring and so on (or fluoride in the water, etc.)
Do you have an interest in "environmentalism" and what do you think would get more "conservatives" interested in taking care of the environment and what do you think "right-wing environmentalism" should look like?
