Everything is connected to everything else.

In every case, the environmental hazards were made known only by independent scientists, who were often bitterly opposed by the corporations responsible for the hazards.

The environmental crisis is a signal of this approaching catastrophe.

The modern assault on the environment began about 50 years ago, during and immediately after World War II.

Because the global ecosystem is a connected whole, in which nothing can be gained or lost and which is not subject to over-all improvement, anything extracted from it by human effort must be replaced. Payment of this price cannot be avoided; it can only be delayed. The present environmental crisis is a warning that we have delayed nearly too long.

If you can see the light at the end of the tunnel, you are looking the wrong way.

The environmental crisis is a global problem, and only global action will resolve it.
