At least he doesn't pound the sand in front of the Statue of Liberty screaming "Damn you! Damn you all to Hell! "
The background music is "Song for the Divine Mother of the Universe," which is right there in the Birkenstock and bong water camp. Environmentalism is bad enough without turning it into a sort of neo-pagan religion. I wouldn't mind a return to the old Corn King and Driudism stuff if they could guarantee alternating the wicker man burnings with a decent Bacchanalia, but this modern Green paganism is downright creepy. It maintains the Christian idea of sin, but throws out the bit about salvation in favour of mere survival. "Worship Blessed Gaia and keep her commandments and you will be allowed to live–until we cull you Brutals, that is."
Personally, I prefer my monkeys to be a bit more laid back.

Pound the sand and scream? Wouldn't he be more likely to just fling... um, that wasn't a very happy thought.
