The Nazi Party immersed their propaganda in idealised imagery of the slogan ‘Blood and Soil’ that people needed a protected area in which to live their utopia, free from what they called imperfections. For the national socialists a rural lifestyle was superior to the immorality and ‘race chaos’ of the city contrasted between Germans and Jews.

In the 1970’s, John Tanton, the head of the Sierra Club’s National Population Committee advocated eugenics and organized an anti-immigration movement, concerned with overpopulation on environmental grounds. This dynamic is likely to intensify as climate change creates new stresses that could pit nations and groups against one another. he pressures of a warming planet are new, the deployment of environmental language for racist, nativist and nationalistic ends has a long, dark history. Before environmentalism became a mainstream and progressive cause in the 1970s, many American conservationists were also white supremacists, who argued that those they saw as outsiders threatened the nation’s landscape or lacked the values to care for it properly.

The killers accused of targeting Muslims and Mexican immigrants last year in New Zealand and Texas posted online manifestoes weaving white supremacy with environmental statements.
The Australian man who allegedly murdered 51 people at two Christchurch mosques called himself an “ethnonationalist eco-fascist” and wrote that “continued immigration into Europe is environmental warfare.” The suspect in the El Paso shooting that killed 22 — modern America’s deadliest attack targeting Latinos — ranted about plastic waste and overconsumption. “If we can get rid of enough people, then our way of life can become more sustainable,” he concluded.
