Within the past decade, the EPA awarded or continues to have open more than 7,500 grants, totaling $3,847,160,250 to non-profit groups alone.

Difficult to tell. They both want us to return to the 8th century

The preamble to that document states that, among other things, signatories do hereby re-establish our spiritual interdependence to the sacredness of our Mother Earth
These organizations are not so much pro-environment as they are anti-human. Much like their counterparts in the animal rights movement.
Mother Earth. This is not a movement. It is a religion.

Another $3.8 Billion plus reasons why sensible taxpayers absolutely loath bureaucrats and have nothing but utter disgust for the federal government in general.
Most, if not all, state governments aren’t any better.
They just don’t don’t have the size and reach to conduct their extortion at the same level as the Feds.

"Environmentalism is instinctively and relentlessly illiberal, and it is doing more to inculcate people with fear, self-loathing and a religious-style sense of meekness than any piece of anti-terror legislation ever could. If you believe in freedom, you must reject it."

you bet...they’re getting a wiff of what the peons and peasants out in Flyover Country intend for them under Constitutional Government.
We may actually have the specter of the Feds aiding and abetting local voter fraud to try to avoid that.

The National Association for Hispanic Elderly scooped in almost $14 Million in 2010? Truly, WTF! Is this what winning the future is all about?
