Environmental globalization
[edit]... that environmental globalization refers to internationally coordinated practices and regulations regarding environmental protection, and is sometimes seen as an impediment to economic globalization?
ALT1:... that anti-economic globalization activists are likely to support environmental globalization?- Comment: ALT1 is more sexy. Really wanted to find a ref that would allow inclusion of anti-globalization term, but couldn't find one. PS.

Piotrus, this is nearly there. QPQ checks out, new enough, long enough, neutral, etc. Cited inline, and the hook fact is supported. However, ALT1, which I much prefer, says "ant-economic globalization activists," while the article says "environmental activists." The two are not necessarily the same, and the hook fact needs to be in the article. Can you fix this? Regards, Vanamonde93 (talk) 06:18, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- @Vanamonde93: Well, the article states " environmental activists might might be opposed to economic globalization", which I sourced to [1]. The source states "an environmental activist might criticie economic or corporate globalization but advocate environmental--ffff globalization or worldwide standards for air and water purity". If you'd have suggestion on how to word the hook, or the article, better, given the source, I'd appreciate it - I did think long and hard about this before, and I still don't have a better solution then the present wording. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:23, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- So why not say exactly that, more or less as you've done in the article at the bottom of the first section? That way, there's no issues. Vanamonde (talk) 12:20, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
- Piotrus, it's been over two weeks since Vanamonde93 responded. Please address this soon. Thank you. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:03, 8 August 2016 (UTC)
