Description
They challenge environmentalism! Eco-group leaders polled by People magazine voted Ron and Alan the Number One "Enemy of the Earth" they'd like to see living next to a toxic waste dump. Everybody is talking about them. Time magazine said, ".in the wise-use movement, its ideologues are Ron Arnold, a former Sierra Clubber who did a philosophical backfill, and Alan Gottlieb, a long-time fundraiser for conservative causes." The New York Times wrote, " Mr Gottlieb is the most successful fund-raiser working to tap a growing movement of loggers, ranchers, miners, oil drillers, dirt-bike riders and others who view big environmental groups as a threat to their livelihood and way of life." The Washington Post wrote, " A former Sierra Club official...Arnold says he still considers himself a strong conservationist. But he accuses mainstream groups of exaggerating or even inventing environmental threats in order to advance narrow political goals that have little to do with safeguarding natural resources.
