The development of green politics has been seen as a major revolution in social and political thought. It has also bred a form of political activity which is intimately linked to ideas of personal transformation and a change in lifestyle. Its rise and influence on mainstream politics is so significant that critics have sometimes referred to a green establishment, and are critical of the way in which green issures are so readily accepted and used in educational establishments.
Earlier efforts to lift environmental issues into the popular consciousness were not to successful. However,the association of a new political movement with a particular science and a spiritual revival has been unique in recent years and this assocaition has also resulted in a series of contradictions.
