The title was Benji’s joke, clearly. Stephen Perkins is joined by Coming Clean and ACC Founder Benji Backer as he kicks off the tour for his new book “The Conservative Environmentalist”, a treatise on what it means to merge two terms which started off synonymous.
Takeaways
- The book 'The Conservative Environmentalist' offers a comprehensive and common-sense approach to environmentalism from a right-of-center perspective.
- The narrative around climate change needs to change, focusing on innovation, economic growth, and human flourishing.
- ACC and its members play a crucial role in shaping the conservative environmental movement and creating a third path between alarmism and denial.
- Short-term wins, such as permitting reform and plugging orphaned wells, can pave the way for larger steps in environmental action.
- The book tour and the movement as a whole are driven by the collective efforts of individuals and organizations dedicated to finding sustainable solutions.
