The democratization of environmentalism, away from conservation for the elites and towards a global right for humans and ecosystems, is difficult to overstate.
The struggle has always existed, but the costs of failures have certainly escalated beyond imagination since WWII:
--The updated (2016) go-to book on the environmental crisis, synthesizing Earth Systems science with political economy: Facing the Anthropocene: Fossil Capitalism and the Crisis of the Earth System
--Chomsky on the 21st century and beyond: Nuclear War and Environmental Catastrophe).
This book was one step in the modern struggle, and the most-recent corporate backlash (detailed in Merchants of Doubt: How a Handful of Scientists Obscured the Truth on Issues from Tobacco Smoke to Global Warming) reveal the present as what it always is, a continuation of history.
