"Red and Blue have nothing to do with Green."

Seriously, separate petty politics from the task of keeping our planet in good condition. We are ALL living here.

I was interested in conservation long before politics, and still the only reason I care for politics is because the two are connected. Why is it just the "radical leftist treehuggers" that care about our planet? Shouldn't everyone be involved in the conversation? Isn't the health of the Earth bigger than any silly disputes we might have amongst ourselves?

I'm advocating a separation of environmentalism and politics. There is no need to preach a doctrine one way or the other. Everyone should be involved.
