Should Greens focus on the Third World, Global Burning, or Animals? |
|||
In the 1990s greens faced political attacks from
the right of the political spectrum for being more concerned about environmental
issues in the over-industrialized world than they were about the widespread
poverty of hundreds of millions of people in the third world. (This is
of course a bit rich considering that conventionally it has been right
wing thinkers who have defended and promoted the exploitation of third
world people and their resources). The person who promoted this strategy
was eric chivian who .. “helped start a new organization, the Project
on Global Environmental Change and Health, which in 1993 published ..
‘Critical Condition: Human Health and the Environment’.”[166] His
arguments were then picked up by beckermann (see Big is Beautiful), gregg
easterbook (see review), and the ‘against nature’ series on channel four. The mundi club’s view is that these issues
can be solved only through a comprehensive global agreement and that attempts
to solve only one of these issues by itself will lead to the exacerbation of
problems in the other two areas. |
