I may have lost my temper slightly in the comments and posted one longer than the original article.

It's possible, but if it's irony she's doing it wrong. It reads as either bog-standard SF triumphalism of the worst kind, or deliberate trolling, to me. Too many people really do believe things like that, and the SF/libertarian nexus tends to attract them.

This (http://www.worldwildlife.org/what/wherewework/sers/WWFBinaryitem2738.pdf) is the only thing I can find along those lines for her, and it's a good report, but she's listed as only one of four co-authors and (significantly) with no affiliation in the "experts attending" list.

Without any more information on what her environmental activism consists of, I'm not willing to assume that a) she doesn't believe anything she wrote, and b) this doesn't need public refutation anyway.
