Most '''Environmentalists''' tend to be [[Leftists]] who insist on [[censorship|censoring]], blocking and sometimes destroying human use of the environment for productive purposes.  Going way beyond [[conservationism]], they seek legal limitations on human use of the Earth's natural environment and resources. Media reporting usually blurs the distinction between "no-use" environmentalism and "wise-use" conservation.
