There's so much pollution in the air now that if it weren't for our lungs there'd be no place to put it all. | Robert Orben (1927-) |
Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value. | Richard Buckminster Fuller (1895-) |
[There] is an increasing sense of what can be called "legal pollution." | Thomas Ehrlich |
Pollution is the forerunner of perdition | John Trapp |
In 22 states parents can’t take kids fishing and eat the fish if they’re lucky enough to catch anything because of mercury. Think about that. In 44% of all river bodies and streams it’s not safe to fish or swim. And yet industrial polluters continue to block legislation that would prevent mercury and MTBE from polluting our water supplies and leaving children with debilitating diseases. | Senator John Kerry (1943-) |
Still, year after year strong mercury rules fail in Washington under pressure from corporate interests. Why? Not because the risks of mercury poisoning aren’t real. No, lobbyists for the big industries just say they can’t afford to make changes. | Senator John Kerry (1943-) |
