Do environmentalists—and the rest of the progressive left that includes combating climate change as part of its “Omnicause”—care more about saving the planet or replacing market capitalism, private property, and pluralist living arrangements with socialist tower-blocks connected by overcrowded light rail (on which there will be no enforcement of fare payment, naturally)? There’s a tell—opposing nuclear-powered electric generation, which emits no point-source carbon emissions whatsoever. And my colleague Ken Braun, author of Capital Research Center’s comprehensive report on the environmentalist movement’s “Enemies of Energy,” has updated his extensive list of left-wing groups opposed to nuclear energy—the ones that clearly privilege making a New Soviet Man over making the Earth better for people.
