I give him the same respect I give anybody who sticks to their guns. To me that's way more important than his self righteous nobody any longer knows what a sustainable future is statement. He has done a very good job at what he does producing quality shows.
None-the-less I'm glad he is just one voice. Unsustainable and unrealistic is how I would describe many of the environmental types. Nothing wrong and a lot right about good stewardship of the resources we have been given but people top the agenda each and every time.
We don't need to fall all over ourselves protecting the horny owl(an invented species though there may well be one but not quite the way I was thinking about it) at the expense of people's jobs. Yes you need to have a balance to sustain things longterm but I'm glad his thinking is still not mainstream.
Takes nothing away from the fact he is a Canadian icon who has stuck to what he believes in.
