Bailey turns the precautionary principle into a straw man and thereby endangers whatever points he makes that are worth considering.

【翻译】贝利把防范原则变成了一个挡箭牌，从而危及到他提出的任何值得考虑的观点。

【分析】endangers （谓语）whatever points he makes（宾语） that are worth considering（定语从句）.

1. endangers：及物动词。“危及；伤害；危害”

2. whatever points he makes：名词性从句（意为：他提出的任何观点），作endangers的宾语。

3. that are worth considering：是修饰整个whatever points he makes 的定语从句，具体说就是修饰points。意为“值得考虑的”。
