Environmentalism-The New Religion

I have recently discovered a marine biologist, Walter Starck, who is clearly a deep thinker with a broad view of the world. This paper from Quadrant Online is quite long, but well worth a read. It encapsulates many notions I share which I have found difficult to express. Also linked is an article  from The Australian by  former Queensland Treasurer, Keith Delacy, which deals with the manifestation of the values Starck decries.
