As confirmed by founder of Greenpeace Patrick Morre ....

[Climate change theory became the main focus of extremists after] "world
communism failed, the Wall came down and a lot of peaceniks and political
activists moved into the environmental movement bringing their neo-Marxism with
them and learnt to used green language in a very clever way to cloak agendas
that have more to do with anti-capitalism and anti-globalisation than ...
ecology or science."
