Crazy enviromentalist. They got that name when a group in Cali got together while trying to stop the cutting of trees. They held hands and wrapped themselves around the trees. It's pretty much is used for any Enviromental wacko now daysFound an answer to your question?

I'm all for protecting our natural woodlands and wildlife, but I'm not an extremist. I wouldn't mind being called a 'tree hugger' if that meant I cared so much about keeping the natural state of things just the way they are and stop tearing it all up just to build commercial properties and kit homes.Found an answer to your question?
