How much actual "eco-terrorism" has there been? Any oil rigs blown up in your area? I don't even see any protest groups advocating for it.
I'm not saying you're wrong but we should be significantly more concerned about the ecological destruction that's actually happening and still increasing right now.
i think the guy is saying we need eco terrorism. but a sustainable organic free-range eco terrorism, so that the acts of terror don't produce a worse outcome of what we are doing now.
like blowing up an oil rig will cause an oil spill at sea. sabotaging oil tankers on ports doesn't spill oil on the sea but it has the same effect as blowing up oil rigs.
