Conservative Conservationists for Market-Led Environmentalism
Emerging Out of the Shadows: Green Republicans DO Exist!
Thank you for joining this network! Your presence alone is inspirational and helpful to our cause...
What is our cause? Practical, prudent, market-led environmentalism, of course!
However, that cause naturally produces another - the need for our voice to be heard so that balance can come to "The Force" known as the Green Movement.
America's young people are constantly bombarded with false ideologies and one sided environmental philosophies that go largely uncontested. Our children are growing up believing that driving an SUV is unethical and will inadvertently kill their grandchildren, using mercury in household lghtbulbs is harmless, recycling is always right regardless of cost or consequence, and paying someone else to plant trees releases you from responsibility for the air pollution you create and then hypocritically judge others for creating.
How tragic is this line of thinking?
But what are they supposed to think if the only alternative is an unfairly polarized image of an apathetic Republican?
Those of us who are decidedly green must make our presence known and voices heard so that other conservatives can emerge from the shadows and so those who are still searching for answers might find practical alternatives to the liberal groupthink currently known as environmentalism.
So, if your voice is to be heard, why not start right here, right now? What environmental issues are most pressing to you, and why?

Practical Greening: This Is Not a Religion, People...
It's amazing how when we as human beings catch hold of a good idea, we almost automatically find a way to ruin it.
Environmentalism sounded cool when I first began to learn about it in school, but by the time I was an adult, I was turned off by the ritualistic, cultish type behaviors of those who thought tha
