WHETHER THE GREEN MOVEMENT RAISED AWARENESS OF PROBLEMS
The Clean Air Act in the UK was passed in 1956 & in the US the first in 1963. Both of which handily predate the "environmentalist" movement. I won't quite say they did nothing but harm but certainly many "environmentalists" are merely riding a pre-existing popular feeling in the cause of Ludditism & sometimes socialism. To be fair to real socialists no political philosopher was more in favour of scientific & industrial progress than Marx & most of the Green Marxists are no more Marxist than Green.
