To you useful idiots for the coal & oil gang hating the greenies, the best way to show that environmentalists are unreasonable is to:
1) Confine all of your outdoor recreational activities to areas of Appalachia where the tops of mountains have been blown off to extract coal with the waste being dumped into streams.
2) Eat a fish-only diet, even the doctors advise limiting intake of fish due to accumulation of mercury. However, since you project a view that the environmental community & epidemiologists overstate the potential health effects of pollution, you will be more the willing to do this.
3) Move to a neighborhood adjacent to an oil refinery. Any data showing higher rates of environmentally-caused illnesses/diseases in such communities is just "junk science" and you would confidently move to them knowing that oil refinery emissions would never harm you.
4) Make a point of vacationing (with your family) at seashores which have been hit by massive oil spills (like Louisiana in 2010). If you chose the right spouse and raised your children correctly, there will be no complaints from your family.
