I really do not think that members of Green Peace, risking their lives fighting whalers are looking for global power. I do not believe that people preserving old growth forests by living in trees are going to find their way to the top of the power pinnacle. I do not fancy that environmentalists chaining themselves to bulldozers and standing in front of logging trucks are going to get millions (billions?) in kickbacks, set themselves up in cozy corporate jobs or have ambitions for controlling global affairs. If Al Gore really, truly wanted some kind of power on a global scale, he would have fought tooth and nail against the election that Bush stole from him. But he did not... he meekly conceded his chance at being the most powerful person in the world. Yes, the fossil fuel industry provides us with oil and gasoline... that is their business... and they make obscene profits and receive billions of our taxes in running this business. They also stand in the way of developing renewable energy sources. As fossil fuels become more scarce the fossil fuel industry will make a killing... literally, laughing all the way to the bank, at yours and my expense.
