I'm not sure envirolmentalist is the right word. Naturalist? Definitely. I think that Tolkien felt that trees have their own spirituality, that, if the situation arose they could uproot themselves and walk the earth. Tolkien had an opinion about how trees see time, which i think is valid. Trees live a very long time, so the minutes must pass slow for them. I think Tolkien felt it was important to add something about the power of nature in his tales.
