Conclusion thoughts

In regards to Evan Berry’s proposal in his book, Devoted to Nature, that the concepts of environmentalism be removed from the realm of technopolitics, I definitely think that it would be great for the environmentalist movement to accept the religious people and increase the count of people who experience religion through nature, and thus motivate the idea of green movements, conservation, and tourism.  Ethical environmentalists should already exist, as it is to literally everyone’s imperative to aid in the fight against climate change, which people deny for some reason, I digress. It was never thought in those original days referenced by the book that the impact of the industry would create the problems of global warming and climate change as we face them today.

I wouldn’t know much about religious movements, so I cannot say for certain that they have changed toward the naturalist and environmentalist world views, but seeing as how it is part of regular american culture to appreciate the natural environments and monuments of North America. The government regulations currently in place that were made as a result of these former religious naturalist organizations definitely help the current conservation methods, and there are still plenty of ad campaigns and popular culture media being used to reinforce the ideas of exploring “The great outdoors”, it seems to me that they almost seem cliche and that most Americans ignore the prospect of protecting the forest and rather see it as to feed their own needs, I worked in Kisatchie National Forest, and from what I saw most people who were fishing, camping, and hunting, werent out there in appreciation for nature but rather for their own selfish concepts, as these people tend to litter rather than be appreciative of this environment.
