“It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's The impurities in our air and water that are doing it”
“... by treating nature as exterior and inferior to humans we saw no harm to ourselves in polluting the soil, the plants, the air and the water. We did not notice the effect of our pollution on whatever walked over it, ran across it, climbed up it, flew through it, or swam in it.Now we notice that harming other constituents of our planetary system brings harm to ourselves.”
“One must be a sea, to receive a polluted stream without becoming impure.”
“It has come to my attention, that air pollution is polluting the air!”
“Our mental environment is a common-property resource like the air or the water. We need to protect ourselves from unwanted incursions into it, much the same way we lobbied for nonsmoking areas ten years ago.”
“Love is in the air. Love and pollution.”
