In what deserves and gets both “irony alert” and “hypocrisy alert” tags, it would seem that Sierra Club Executive Director Carl Pope is stealing a page out of President George Bush’s “unitary executive” idea.
Except in this case, the “unitary executive” means the individual creative force of Sierra Club volunteers gets united under Carl Pope. How else to explain Project Renewal?
Ditto, “unitary executive” means the contribution dollars of individual Sierra members plays second fiddle to branding dollars from Clorox.
Oh, and there’s another irony alert here. Despite Sierra HQ stressing over the past few years that it does not want to address in any way, shape or form the impact of additiona population numbers, especially from illegal immigration, on U.S. environmental issues, at one time Pope was political director for Zero Population Growth.
Dave Brower is probably turning over in his grave as we speak. And, another irony alert. Before he died, Brower grew more concerned over population growth.
