I have to go along with the first post on the reasons for. Spent too much of my life not having much of anything to enjoy wasting what I do have, like the outdoors & places without a lot of people, etc. In other words, my motivations run about 20 parts selfish to 1 of altruistic.
Now for some few for the many things I dislike about the "green movement", at least as presented by its noisier spokesworms - a full list would bore you, and likely give me a bad case of carpal tunnel syndrome :-)
1) In honor of the first poster, I really dislike the way they go around believing things. I'm an empiricist: don't talk to me about what you believe. Learn the science, understand the engineering, and show me your data.
1a) As a sub-instance of this, their hysterical "omigawd it's nuclear we're all gonna DIE!" anti-nuclear religion.
2) The watermelons. The ones with the green exterior that's just a thin skin over a red heart, who try to turn every environmental question into a left-right political issue, and a justification for leftist propaganda. Though I'm not all that fond of the right, especially the religious variety, I really, really detest the left.
