Robert Kennedy Jr. was enlarge a big contributor to environmentalism because of the name of the Kennedy family. He did a lot for publicizing the issues also he was capable of getting legal issues involved with helping the environment. He was often seen as a hypocrite for not letting them build windmills in the way of his view and for the family owning two drilling companies.
