I just started watching The Learning Channel series "State of the Planet" with David Attenborough, it is television at its best. They should tie President Moronic-Polluter to a chair and make him watch it. Some of Attenboro's insights might penetrate his primitive brain. Bill Mulcahy

Is Laisse Faire bad for the envorinment? Check this out: In Ecological Disaster, Murray Feshbach adds to his work on the disastrous environmental situation in the former Soviet Union. This most recent book builds on the foundation he and his co-author, Alfred Friendly, Jr., laid in their 1992 work Ecocide in the USSR (see E/W Letter, no. 1 1993, p.3). In Ecological Disaster, Mr. Feshbach not only describes again the horrific conditions in the region, but goes on to provide a strategy for the West to help ameliorate the environmental situation in the ex-USSR. He emphasizes the need for a central group to coordinate aid efforts and highlights concerns that must be addressed by the Russian and other governments. In contrast to Ecocide, which tended to be more anecdotal, the arguments in Ecological Disaster are carefully supported with scientific studies and empirical evidence -- making it more useful to those in the West who must justify the provision of aid. http://www.okno.com/ewltr/archive/vol4/ru-ecodisaster-bkrev.html USSR IN CRISIS ENVIRONMENTAL DEVASTATION IN THE SOVIET UNION By James Ridgeway James Ridgeway is a columnist for the Village Voice Moscow--A SURVEY OF THE SOVIET environmental situation reveals a country in desperate straits. According to a mapping scheme developed by Soviet scientists, 16 percent of their country, containing a quarter of its population, is at environmental risk. http://www.essential.org/monitor/hyper/issues/1990/09/mm0990_05.html Check out these other links: http://www.idrc.ca/oceei/papers/roots_e.cfm http://www.cpss.org/books/ecocide.htm http://darwin.bio.uci.edu/~sustain/suscoasts/krismin.html ------------------------------------------------------ visit http://www.1marketsquare.com It's there for you.
