Many of the environmentalists resonate with President Barack Obama’s slogan of “Change you can believe in”. Change is not comfortable. I often have to be jolted into making a change.

Audacity of hope for a greener earth and a greener world is a good thing. Audacity about breaking the law is quite another. To break the law is a crime. Consequently, some environmentalists are criminals. I guess those law breaking environmental enthusiasts subscribe to Malcolm X’s ”by any means necessary” theory.
