Upon induction into the US Army many decades ago, I made the mistake of answering one of their test questions that I did like to take walks in the woods --- so I ended up being assigned to the infantry. :-) [I only avoided deployment to Vietnam at that time because of someone else's administrative actions.]
Now, I like trees and forests and woodland generally, especially over beaches, but I also like the benefits of the "energy slaves" provided by high energy density fossil fuels and nuclear energy. The most effective way to impact and effect good and successful environmental practices, and wild land preservation, is through the high wealth situations such high energy sources can provide.
My criterion is simple and hopefully inoffensive: do you like trees? 'Cuz we like trees.
