So I bought Jerome and Markos's new book, and I'm starting to delve through it. As I make my way through I'm going to dissect certain points in it. Very early on, they go into a significant diatribe against the enviro groups, and a lot of it is warranted.
When one talks about the advocacy organizations on our side, you only need to to think about one figure - $100 million. The intake of the Sierra Club in 2004. No other C3 on our side comes even close. According to Crashing the Gate, the largest enviro groups took in approximately $415 million. In one year. And nothing to show for it. CAFE stardards? nope. Global Warming initiatives? ha. Solar Energy? Wind Energy? not even close. zip. zero. nada.
