You believe that prioritizing economic growth and human progress will lead to a more prosperous and advanced society.
Anti-environmentalism is a political ideology that opposes environmentalism and challenges the scientific consensus on the urgency of addressing climate change. This ideology often prioritizes economic growth, industrial development, and personal freedoms over environmental protection. Anti-environmentalists typically argue that environmental regulations are unnecessary, overly restrictive, or even harmful to economic prosperity. They often downplay the severity of environmental issues or deny the human role in climate change.
The roots of anti-environmentalism can be traced back to…

Would you be at ease with the notion that the natural beauty you enjoy may not be around for your children to see?
@9KLDYVG2mos2MO
Absolutely not. The Earth is all we have and I don't understand how people can stand aside while we destroy it.
@9KT3PRQ2mos2MO
There seems to be this societal notion that our resources are infinite. They're not. And yet there is incentive for companies to create products designed to break or be replaced as they will then make more money. It is then further reinforced by using cheap and enviromentally harmful resources to create these products while also utilising media to push the burden of environmental consciousness on the customers through recycling despite companies lying or misleading about what can or can't be recycled.
@9KQPLBY2mos2MO
Though not prioritised, saving earth is important for many reasons. I would personally to my bit, however, not make my life devoted to it. I semi-agree with this statement because further generations should have freedom.
@9KQMCG22mos2MO
Absolutely not. The Earth is all we have and I don't understand how people can stand aside while we destroy it.
@9LMQ8BC2wks2W
No this upsets me deeply nature is an essential part of humanity
@9LP4FHC1wk1W
The nature we have around us allows for the climate to still hold itself together and has been around longer than us so we should respect it.
@9LNV7DB1wk1W
The beauty of nature makes me feel the presence of something bigger than myself. I believe this is a critical aspect of the human experience and brings the best out of humanity.
@9KTHWVF2mos2MO
I'd of course rather it not but i don't feel that strong on the issue, it isnt a big concern as much as other topics.
@9KXVC58Liberal Democrat1mo1MO
the natural beauty of this world is of vital importance to help as it isnt ours yet we can benefit from it hugely
@9KXPXZ51mo1MO
What is referred to as natural beauty is vital environmental factors required for the continuation of the species.
@9LHCYL53wks3W
No, I think it is our privilege and responsibility to enjoy and protect the natural world.
@9LKZLWXLiberal Democrat2wks2W
we have a duty and responsibility to care for generations to come. it is both selfish and inhumane to leave the world in a worse state than that which we arrived in
@9LKYM6KLiberal Democrat2wks2W
It is a selfish egotistical concept that people cannot see the importance of passing natural beauty onto the next generations
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Do you believe it's fair for future generations to inherit a damaged planet for the sake of our current economic growth?
@9H84KJC5mos5MO
No. But I also don’t think the infrastructure or investment is there yet to go completely green, and I don’t think the government are that fussed about net zero.
@9H63BBY5mos5MO
No, for the most part. We should grow the economy in an environmentally sustainable way.
@9H7Z7WP5mos5MO
No. I'm not convinced growth is the best measure of a successful economy and in anycase we just nedd to grow the green sector to acheive growth.

What if a significant historical event in your country was linked to anti-environmental actions; would that affect your national pride?
@9J4TGS33mos3MO
Attempting to open a new coal mine and handing out new licences for north sea oil and gas.
Yes. I would be disappointed in my country for allowing such an event.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Would you sacrifice your current lifestyle for stringent environmental measures that you may not directly benefit from?
@9JLNRB83mos3MO
Very biased question but I’m still going to say yes. I am vegetarian, have massively cut down on my cheese consumption, do not plan on ever learning to drive, and am planning on giving up flying after this year. Rational choice model is bull **** .

@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Imagine a world with fewer environmental regulations; does that prospect excite or concern you?
@9H63QJG5mos5MO
Concern. The rate at which climate change is affecting our planet is more than alarming and should be constantly and consistently addressed.

@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
Considering the increasing number of eco-friendly products on the market, how do they affect your shopping choices?
@9JLNRB83mos3MO
I think it means we have to look harder. There’s a lot of green washing out there, so watch out folks!
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
If you had to give up an electronic device to reduce e-waste, which one would it be and why?
@9JLNRB83mos3MO
Good question! Not thought about this. My instinct is that I need my phone for my social life and laptop for work so it would have to be my TV. I spend too much time watching it anyway.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
What would your reaction be if popular vacation spots could no longer be visited due to environmental neglect?
@9JLNRB83mos3MO
That people shouldn’t have been visiting them in the first place because it was bound to happen. Stop being so selfish, people.

How would you feel if you had to choose between a high-paying job that harms the environment and a lower-paying job that helps protect it?
@9JLNRB83mos3MO
I actually have a moral compass, so you guess my answer.
