Q11. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
More change has occurred in the environmental movement during the past ten years than in its entire
previous history. Its thrust has become less ideological and more pragmatic, less New Age and more
scientific. It is increasingly grounded in the databases of atmospheric science and the genetic models of
conservation biology. The practice of conservation in particular is now linked to economic development
rather than opposed to it, focused on biological diversity rather than just scenic beauty, broadened to
save entire ecosystems rather than individual star species such as pandas and bald eagles, and tilted to
put increasing emphasis on those tropical countries where the most severe environmental problems
exist. The next hundred years may well evolve into the century of the environment- during which most
societies shift from guns and bullets to butter and trees. Allthis comes not a moment too soon, if we are
to save a failing planet.A decade ago the public image of environmentalism was burdened with what
might be called the Greenpeace metaphor. Environmental issues were caricatured as theatres of
ideological conflict, where champions of Nature battled champions of Progress. Liberals, in this view,
blocked dams in order to save oddly named small fishes, while conservatives heedlessly sacrificed the
environment for short-term profit. The dichotomy was far from exact, but like most oversimplifications it
held a lot of truth and reflected accurately some of the larger tensions of American life. Today, to my
distress, some conservative writers continue to treat environmentalism with skepticisin or outright
hostility. They depict it as one more workshop of the left, a means of enlarging government control and
the power of the bureaucratic New Class, and a cudgel with which to beat free market economies and
press for a restructuring of society-in short, a clever scheme to add the environment and its votaries to
the Welfare State. This is a mistake. The environmental crisis is real. If the heart of the conservation
agenda is the preservation of the best in the world in the midst of change, it cannot be limited to
institutions, the rule of law, and personal morality, but must also embrace the environment.
,,Conservare" is the common stem of conservation and conservatism, and perhaps that ancient link
should serve as a signature of the basic principle that humanity does not exist apart from nature and will
suffer to the extent that we abuse it. Growth in scientific knowledge has altered the character of the
environmental movement and its relation to political and economic life. A global view now
prevails. We no longer see changes as isolated episodes the pollution of a river here or the extinction of a
bird species there. Now we see all of these events as having coalesced into worldwide secular trends.
