My evidence that Environmentalism is a religion

  1.  It has a Garden of Eden.  The "perfect balance" of nature, before man came along.
  2.  It has "Original Sin".  The Industrial Revolution.
  3.  It has a God figure.  Mother Earth.
  4.  It has saints, priests and prophets.  Al Gore.
  5.  It has demons.  Anyone who thinks global warming is a hoax.
  6.  It has sin.  One word.  Pollution.  More specifically, your "carbon footprint".
  7.  It has absolution of sins.  Carbon offset credits.
  8.  It has a moral code that its adherents follow.  "Green" energy, "green" buildings, etc.
  9.  It has a belief of armageddon.  The polar icecaps melting and the penguins dying.
10.  It offers salvation to humanity if everyone follows the religion.  Everyone being "carbon-neutral".
