An Environmental Cause For Action: A Radical Manifesto
We are : a group of clandestine radical environmentalists, dedicated to a single cause, to bring about ecological change by forcibly executing our policy upon the masses, despite the convictions of others. We are deeply affected by the precautions taken to protect our ecosystem. We seek retribution for the lack of secure protocols regarding environmental protection. We are a group of cells cancerous in form, we will spread like a plague upon the sheep who failed to take ample precaution. If a group of people be it men, women, or children do not agree with our actions, they will be eradicated without reason. The action of preserving our ecosystem outweighs the value of any human life, we

Technological advancements have run amok for far too long. As technology advances, the quality of human life degrades. Human beings are so fixated on technology that they often overlook the inherent dangers associated with it. Humans see technology as advancement, however we see it as an evolutionary step backwards. We must revert back to our fundamental way of life. In order to bring ecological change, awareness to the masses and cleanse the soiled terrestrial sphere, we must enact our policy immediately. We believe the only approach to combating an ecological hazard is through systematic destruction and coercion. Our actions are for the greater good of society, therefore they are justifiable. We believe in consequentialism, our actions are just. We fight to protect our environment and preserve our livelihood. We believe mankind is responsible for a myriad of modern ecological atrocities. Our primary targets are not human beings, however, innocent bystanders are not of our concern. We believe our earth is in such a sad state due to overdevelopment, as well as inevitable human error. Human beings are losing touch with their most primitive roots, people now longer know or understand the concept of becoming one with nature. Modern technology, and advancement of infrastructure has led to the ultimate demise of our ecological standards, which MUST be adhered to. Technological advancements without proper safeguards are destined for ecological disaster, we aim to show how catastrophic these lack of safeguards can be. We believe in the reversion of primal societal change. With action comes change, we will use whatever means necessary to accomplish our primary objective. We will broadcast our cause via your government controlled media. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwGgx-uyyvY). Our

    Within Modern society there is a large trend towards consumerism and a wasteful behaviour of spending and reckless advancement in technology only for leisure purposes. David Suzuki in his essay titled “It Always Costs,” not only lays out the facts about the damage that reckless advancement has on Earth, but also outlines some methods of testing and caution that should be put into practice for the benefit of humanity. Witnessing the recklessness of the human race through detrimental untested technological innovations, Suzuki describes through several examples the damages of technologies such as that of DDT and thalidomide. Furthermore Suzuki outlines a dangerous system ridden with a lack of consistency when testing new technology, as well as a societal norm which values innovation over preservation whether it be of technology or more specifically environmental realms. Through both metaphorical and anecdotal evidence, Dr. Suzuki…

    The Progressive Era is a period in American history defined by radical political and social movements that challenged the foundational principles of the nation. Though classical liberal principles had been challenged in the past, specifically during the Civil War and Reconstruction, it was the Progressive Era that represented a shift in the American political arena away from individualism. During the Progressive Era, egalitarian movements began to take hold in the United States. Activists and reformers from diverse backgrounds and with very different agendas pursued their goals of a better America. As a result, by the turn of the 20th century, industrialization and urbanization had transformed the US into a wealthy and dominant world…

    Ecoterrorism refers to individuals who were from fairly nonviolent movements and called for a revitalization of the geophysical and biological environment to now demonizing individuals who threaten the environment through ferocious acts (Merriam-Webster,2010). However, while committing terrible acts, those who participate in ecoterrorism still involve themselves in ecological and environmental movements (Swanson, Territo, & Taylor, 2017). For example, setting a fast food restaurant on fire or setting a housing complex on fire that was under construction in San Diego(ADL,2015). Two modern ecoterrorist groups are the Animal liberation front(ALF) and the Earth liberation front(ELF).…

    There seems to be a sense of disillusionment surrounding the green revolution and green technology as they are constantly being represented as necessities for ‘progression’. Yet, much of environmentalism seems to forget that there will always be regression where there is progress; “we have failed in all of it, and our failure destroyed more than we were even aware of (Kingsnorth & Hine, 2009)”. As human beings, we are inherently fearful of failure and even more inherently fearful of dying. The strategic choice of putting “we have failed” and “our failure destroyed” in the same sentence should provoke an emotional response in the readers. The author has specifically chosen the use of this rhetoric to make the readers question the validity of what they are…

The major cause of said disasters developed from excessive greed and improper use of the land.
