The radical enviros don't care about filthy Third World peasants. What counts is preserving the pretty scenery.

And if those peasants were able to grow adequate food with less labor, they might be able to do other things ... and build up some wealth ... and develop better housing ... which would just be a horrible thing, because the eco-safari types wouldn't see all those quant straw-hut villages without water, sewer and electricity any longer. That's just wrong.

Exactly. Liberals love the earth, but hate the fact that there are people on it.
