On a second thought, environmentalist ideology is more anti-capitalist is its essence than a socialist ideology. Socialism wanted to achieve the same goal as capitalism - i.e. bigger production - through a different ownership of the means of production. In other words, they still wanted to exploit the nature but with a different set of tool. Environmentalism, otoh, questions the very goal of capitalist economy (bigger production) and that sense it is more anti-capitalist than socialism.

This, of course, is different than ideological credentials of activists in the environmentalist or socialist movements - but that does not concern me too much other than whom I'd want to invite to a dinner.
