Students of geo-political history know why.
Here, the prologue to this story:
1. In the Iron Curtain countries, where there were no constitutional democracies and no private property rights, the central planning ethic could be fully realized; the results have been shown to be catastrophic.
The principles of the American republic produced prosperity based on private property and individualism, and constitutional restrictions on the power of the government.
The principles behind both environmentalism, and of the former Soviet Union are based on ending private property rights, and making the collective all powerful, what Robespierre would call ‘the general will.’
Which actually advances the greater good?
a. "Collectivization (1929-33) was the opening and defining phase of Stalin's untrammelled power: it was the first thing he did the moment his hands were free. As a crime against humanity it eclipses the Great Terror,...During Collectivization Stalin is reckoned to have killed about 4 million children. For the man himself, though, and for the man's psychology, the most salient feature of Collectivization was the abysmal depth, and gigantic reach, of its failure.....
Martin Amis, "Koba, The Dread"
b. "...the State 'has the supreme right against the individual, whose supreme duty is to be a member of the State... for the right of the world spirit is above all special privileges.'" Author/historian William Shirer, quoting Georg Hegel in his The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (1959, page 144)
2. When the Soviet Union fell, many fellow travelers migrated to the environmental movement. So much so, that the movement is often referred to as the ‘Watermelon Movement:" green on the outside, red on the inside.
a. It is no accident that April 22, Earth Day, is also the birth date of Vladimir Lenin, an acolyte of Karl Marx, the lunatic who invented communism as an alternative to capitalism. Earth Day is naked communism. To begin, it substitutes a worship of the Earth, Gaia, for the worship of God, creator of the universe and the instructor of moral behavior for mankind. The Earth does not demand a moral code of personal behavior. While America was established to ensure “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness”, environmentalism exists to exert more and more control over our lives by limiting our choices, our liberty.

3. Communism is international socialism. And so is the United Nations: it was the brain-child of Joseph Stalin. He used his influence over Franklin Roosevelt, and his spy, Alger Hiss to set it in motion.
"A young American diplomat wasthe leading force in the designing of the United Nations. He was secretary of the Dumbarten Oaks Conversations from August to October of 1944 where most of the preliminaryplanning for the U.N.was done.
He wasRoosevelt's right-hand man in February of 1945 at Yalta where the postwar boundaries of Europe were drawn(Roosevelt was a dying man at the time. His death came only ten weeks later).
At Yalta it was agreed that theSoviet Union would have three votes (one each for Russia, Ukraine, and Byelorussia) in the U.N. General Assembly, even though the United States had only one.At Yalta much of Europe was placed under the iron heel of communist rule. At Yalta, Churchill, Roosevelt, andStalin appointed this young diplomatic shining star to be the first Secretary-general of the U.N.for the founding conference held in San Francisco,April/June of 1945.
All of this seemed well and good until three years later.Alger Hisswas exposed as a communist spy...."
