You'll have to produce some quotes to back up your assessment of Cronon's perspective. Unless he has fundamentally changed his perspective since he wrote Changes in the Land, I cannot see how he is a proponent of "green capitalism".
I have a long critique of Cronon in the upcoming weekend CounterPunch. This is just a warm-up. It was Donald Worster who applied the term "green capitalism" to him, not me. Worster's "Changes in the Land" and "Nature's Metropolis" are certainly valuable works even though I find something lacking in them that I don't find in Mike Davis. It his essay on "The Trouble with Wilderness" that I find really, really bad. It puts into the foreground what was lurking beneath the surface in his earlier work. I deal with it in my article.
