Holy hostility, Batman.

Sure, there are knee-jerk environmentalists. Take any movement and I'll find you someone who takes that movement to its logical extreme. Christianity has Falwell. Conservatism has Coulter. Ad nauseum.

But I think you're missing that one of the largest, most prevalent streams of environmentalism isn't anti-nuclear, isn't anti-fossil fuel, perhaps isn't even anti-pesticide. It's simple conservation.

And you know, there are plenty of people working on things like low-emissions automobiles, more-insulative materials, and safer waste dumps.

Aren't these guys also scientists and engineers?
