Environment is an area where violent resistance prevails, but also an area where disobedience is undermined by calls to behavioral change. The latter can be understood as a refusal to think the place of man and the moral of environmental mutation, the abandonment of scientific methods and the exhaustion of representative democracy. A state using anachronistic approaches cannot promote the necessary changes which must be introduced with a respect to social justice. In order to escape the crisis and the failures generated by disobedience, it is necessary to legitimate other stakeholders besides elected officials, to create new methods of public action, and to introduce a non-governmental expertise that citizens can eventually take over.
