51. Boomers speaheaded a major revolt against consumerism
Militant environmentalism is one of the legacies of the Boomer generation
To the generation raised in the depression, smokestacks were a sign of prosperity
To the boomers raised in the 1950's they were a sign of environmental destruction
Who do you think started the push towards organic agriculture?
What generation do you think created the Whole Earth Catalog, and the notion of living an earth-friendly way?
When did our major environmental legislation get enacted? In the 1960s and 1970s. Which group do you think was pushing this, making it into a mass movement that even Richard Nixon could not ignore?
It was those damn hippies and their younger siblings!
