When I was about seven years old‚ I heard my aunt‚ a gynecologist‚ speaking on the phone with one of her patient’s husbands’ who wanted his wife to abort their baby. My aunt absolutely refused and commanded that he stop calling her. At the time‚ I didn’t really comprehend the story or what was happening‚ but I never forgot that moment.

In both of Wilson’s passages he illustrates the unproductiveness actions made by the Environmentalist and the “critics of the environmental movement” by emphasizing their similar strategies on bashing one another’s view on the environment.
