Opponents of such legislation argue that the rise in annual global temperature is
such a perspective is often compatable with mainstream politics. If the Maxamalist perspective is adopted to define Ecologism there appears to be little argument whern questioning Ecologism as an indepentant ideology due to the fact that it questions the whole of modern industrialisation, although some have claimed that compactibility may be possible with Fascism, Feminism or Anarchism .

The people of this planet must adopt a radical change in their way of thinking and accept that a life full of green is not just another chore but a life changing moment for all of mankind.

Some strongly feel that their individual contribution to society is worthless, while others firmly advocate that becoming ecologically aware helps prevent possible changes in the atmosphere, which is caused by global warming.

never find another woman [Rosa] with her green hair and underwater beauty.? (35, Ch 1) Green is the color the ocean and a symbol of blossoming and awakening while water is pure and innocent. It has a middling quality and mediates between two extremes, or two political standpoints (Socialism and Conservatism).
