By the 1970s, radical environmentalist groups had begun to carry out [[direct action]] against [[nuclear power]] infrastructure, with mobilisations of the [[anti-nuclear movement]] in France, Germany and the United States providing a direct continuity between contemporary environmentalism and the New Left of the 1960s.{{Sfn|Gordon|2009|p=1}} In the 1980s, green anarchist groups such as [[Earth First!]] started taking direct action against [[deforestation]], [[roadworks]] and [[industrial agriculture]].{{Sfnm|1a1=Gordon|1y=2009|1p=1|2a1=Marshall|2y=2008|2p=689|3a1=Price|3y=2019|3p=288}} They called their sabotage actions "monkey-wrenching", after [[Edward Abbey]]'s 1984 novel ''[[The Monkey Wrench Gang]]''.{{Sfn|Price|2019|p=288}} During the 1990s, the [[Road protest in the United Kingdom|road protest movements in the United Kingdom]] and [[Israel]] were also driven by eco-anarchists, while eco-anarchist action networks such as the [[Animal Liberation Front]] (ALF) and [[Earth Liberation Front]] (ELF) first rose to prominence.{{Sfn|Gordon|2009|p=1}} Eco-anarchist actions have included violent attacks, such as those carried out by cells of the [[Informal Anarchist Federation]] (IAF) and [[Individualists Tending to the Wild]] (ITS) against nuclear scientists and nanotechnology researchers respectively.<ref name="Nature2012">{{cite journal|title=Anarchists attack science|journal=Nature|volume=485|issue=7400|pages=561|date= 28 May 2012|doi=10.1038/485561a|pmid=22660296|last1=Phillips|first1=Leigh|bibcode=2012Natur.485..561P|doi-access=free}}</ref>

As environmental degradation was accelerated by the rise of [[Economic globalization|economic globalisation]] and [[neoliberalism]], green anarchists broadened their scope of action from a specific environmentalist focus into one that agitated for [[global justice]].{{Sfn|Curran|2004|p=44}} Green anarchists were instrumental in the establishment of the [[anti-globalization movement|anti-globalisation movement]] (AGM), as well as its transformation into the subsequent [[global justice movement]] (GJM).{{Sfn|Curran|2004|pp=44-45}} The AGM gained support in both the [[Global North and Global South]], with the [[Zapatista Army of National Liberation]] (EZLN) becoming a key organisation within the movement.{{Sfn|Curran|2004|pp=45-46}} It also gained a wide range of support from different sectors of society, not only including [[activist]]s from [[left-wing politics]] or the environmental and peace movements, but also people from [[trade union]]s, church groups and the agricultural sector. Trade unionists were the most prominent presence at the [[1999 Seattle WTO protests]], even outnumbering the environmentalists and anarchists.{{Sfn|Curran|2004|p=46}} Drawing from its anarchist roots, the AGM adopted a decentralised and non-hierarchical model of [[flat organization|horizontal organisation]], embracing new "anarchical" technologies such as the [[internet]] as a means to network and communicate.{{Sfn|Curran|2004|pp=46-47}} Through the environmental and anti-globalisation movements, [[contemporary anarchism]] was ultimately able to achieve a "quasi-renaissance" in anarchist ideas, tendencies and modes of organisation.{{Sfn|Curran|2004|pp=49-50}}
