Environmentalist
Environmentalist is a person or a group that supports any goal of the Environmental movement. Most politically inclined environmentalists identify themselves as Greens and they have strong views on issues that concern the environment. The Green Parties are generally applied to those in the Environmental movement working as volunteers, activists or paid staff. However, the term could also be applied to environmental scientists.
Typically, environmentalists have Conservationist views - in general, they advocate for the Preservation, restoration, or enhancement of the Natural environment.
Environmentalists are sometimes given names in a derogatory context such as watermelon, tree hugger, eco-terrorist, or greeny (greenie). Eco-terrorism is sometimes used to describe the act of Violence, Sabotage, Vandalism, property damage and intimidation both against people and against property committed in the name of environmentalism.
