For My Generation, Environmental Protection isn’t a Red vs. Blue Issue, it’s a Catholic One!
My first educational experience regarding the environment, and the steep hill of degradation it is evidently facing, was in AP Environmental Science during my senior year of high school. I remember particularly being enthralled by the documentary Chasing Coral (if you haven't seen it, it's on Netflix and totally worth viewing!) That year and the ones since I have been taught by society at large that if you support environmental protection, you are a liberal, and that others either believe climate change is a hoax or that the issue will resolve itself without human intervention.
