The Third Reich was a
 flamboyantly green regime.

 A best-selling German novel, published in 1958, had a
 sub-plot about catastrophic anthropogenic global warming
 caused by CO2 emissions. The novelist founded an
 international environmental league, led by a former leader
 of the Hitler Youth, which was instrumental in launching the
 German Green Party.

 The modern environmental movement with its mass
 organizations, confrontational tactics, media manipulation,
 politicized science and apocalyptic propaganda, consolidated
 in West Germany in 1959-61 then spread to the
 English-speaking world.

 Most arguments used by environmentalists today were
 articulated by conservationists during the reign of the
 Kaisers. Many conservation organizations operating in 1918
 continue to operate. The line from 19th century
 Nature-protection to modern environmentalism is without gaps
 or reversals of direction.

 The first “acid rain” scare was in 1864.
