You’d like the author Leigh Phillips, he’s the premier eco-modernist thinker of our time and does a lot to expose the anti science tendencies on the left.
Take for example the obsession with wind and solar energy. They are actually incredibly inefficient, extremely expensive and resource intensive. Do you think the copper, cement, aluminum, steel and other resources needed to make those just comes out of the fucking air? No, they come from open pit mines in Brazil and Australia.
Organic food is another example. Extremely inefficient and in some ways much worse for the environment. And yes, organic food uses pesticides, but they are organic pesticides. What does that mean exactly? It means it’s shittier and in some cases they need to use eight times as much because it’s so ineffective.
