4. no, the links are TO right-wing "spew"

"Here is a list of websites that publish disinformation on ecological issues, among other things. These opinions are forged by economic or religious agendas and the idea that Man owns the Earth. A standard theme is that people concerned about ecology are pessimistic socialists hell-bent on driving Man back to the caves. These people think that business as usual on an ever-larger scale will solve our problems; that we can grow our way out of situations caused by growth."

some examples (on the website, these are links):

General greed-based rhetoric:

Overpopulation.com (Libertarian rhetoric and devious Overpopulation "FAQ")
Progress And Its Sustainability (computer science professor shows little concern for nature)
Julian Simon (America's most outspoken growth addict - RIP)
"Hard Green" by Peter Huber (another conservative with no conscience)
American Enterprise Institute (home of Ben "The Birth Dearth" Wattenberg)
