RANT: Environmentalist Political Parties.

[Paul the Human]

That's offensive. I'm a Kiwi! How dare you associate us with those inferior Australians!

Gah! Sorry. My bad.

The Democrats would hardly qualify as environmental protectionists, just the better of two failed approaches.

Indeed.

What about the American Green party? Do they have the same socialist tinge?

I don't think so, I'm not really all that familiar with their ideology, but third parties rarely carry anything more than a small fraction of the vote. Most people don't even think of them as legitimate contenders, but might vote for them as a way to avoid choosing which evil is best.
