• Delete Notability is not yet established. There is only one secondary source, the Guardian article. The other two are primary sources advocating for "neo-environmentalism," although the first does not seem to use the expression. I expect that an article will be possible in the future, when the concept gets more notice in the press and in scholarship. Borock (talk) 04:44, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect and merge to Bright green environmentalism. The topic is noteworthy and well-referenced, but the particular name used here is not so much. Therefore merging to the other article with similar content makes the most sense. The tendencies discussed in this article - in particular support of nuclear energy - should be incorporated into the "bright green" article, which doesn't mention this. -Helvetica (talk) 06:19, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds good to me. Clearly they are the same thing and the other article is a bit more substantial. Plus it seems like a more catchy, memorable phrase more likely to catch on. Borock (talk) 06:57, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
