I recently wrote a blog entry critiquing the Green environmental movement from a Marxist perspective. It covers the locavore and organic foods movement, deep ecology, permaculture, lifestyle politics (veganism, freeganism, etc.), ecofeminism, and "radical" environmentalism (Green anarchy, veganarchism, and anarcho-primitivism). I'd really like your feedback -- comments, questions, or criticisms are welcome.
