\u201cI would be a classic environmentalist. You would be a classic environmentalist. It was somebody who understood the balance between nature and the developed world. It was somebody who was always looking out for nature in balance with the world now that we\u2019re that that word has been co-opted by the left to be somebody who thinks of nature above all else. And that\u2019s been a very deliberate, very slow moving very, yet very aggressive, at the same time, move to turn environmentalism. You [going] into a war on development wasn\u2019t always that way. Right? I am an environmentalist, a classic environmentalist \u2014 you are? Do you care about nature? I care about nature. I don\u2019t want my Alaska or my United States or, you know, my town here in Anchorage, to be harmed because of bad public policy. Yeah. When it comes to the current environmentalists, they\u2019re doing exactly that. They\u2019re hurting jobs. They\u2019re hurting communities. They\u2019re hurting the name of classic environmentalism. And, you know, really, they\u2019re doing more harm to America. And here in my great State of Alaska, they\u2019re doing more harm to the 750,000 of us than has ever been done to, to help us. It\u2019s absolutely abhorrent.\u201d \u2014 Rick Whitbeck of Power the Future<\/p>\n\n\n\n
