People in the northern Indian state of Punjab are reacting with awe at the sight of the Himalayan mountain range, which is now visible from more than 100 miles away due to the reduction in air pollution caused by the country's coronavirus lockdown.
— By Rob Picheta, CNN, cnn.com
If the land is sick, you are sick.
I kind of believed what Nietzsche said, that nothing not written in your blood is worth reading; it’s just more pollution of the airwaves. If you’re going to write, write one poem all your life, let nobody read it, and then burn it.
Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do.
Even if you insist on continuing to not give a shit about whether disabled people have access to the tools they need to live their lives. Straw bans will not save the environment. They are not a particularly major source of plastic pollution.
In the last few weeks, there has been talk of causes, cures, and civil rights. The proposed remedies are many. Their efficacy is uncertain. The truth is, it seems to me, that there is no one solution, but there are many solutions. Our cities are beset by a multitude of ills, which can be cured only…
Only 3 percent of water on earth is freshwater, the rest is saltwater. Fresh drinking water is becoming increasingly scarce. Only 20 percent of the world's population has running water, and more than one billion people do not have any access to clean water.
Plastic . . . is made largely from synthetic material . . . composed mostly of petroleum. Some plastics, such as a common type called polyvinyl chloride, or PVC, can be worse for the environment than the others because they're made from more toxic materials . . . They can release toxic fumes if burn…
Pollution can infect water, air, and ground. Pollutants can cause diseases and illnesses and even kill us.
Landfills not only take up land space that could be left natural used for other purposes, but they can lead to air and water pollution issues in the local environment.
The destruction of the earth is due in part. . .to a failure of the imagination or to its eclipse by systems of accounting that can’t count what matters. . .so the task of naming & describing is an essential one.
A well-kempt forest begs Our Lady's grace; Someone is not disgusted, or at least Is laying bets upon the human race Retaining enough decency to last; The trees encountered on a country stroll Reveal a lot about a country's soul.
'ghost gear' - lost & abandoned fishing equipment in seas and oceans, totalling 10% of all plastic waste in the ocean & very harmful to marine life.
You don't have a clue what it is to have poison running through your body.
Pollution is nothing but resources we're not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value.
No one noticed When the sparrows left It was just another smoggy winter morning People drove their cars dropped their children off At air conditioned schools Where they learned Pollution is a bad thing It was just another smoggy winter morning And stuck on flyovers No one noticed That they spent mor…
Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans.
I said that the oceans were sick but they're not going to die. There is no death possible in the oceans — there will always be life — but they're getting sicker every year.
The sea is the universal sewer.
It's simply a national acknowledgement that in any kind of priority, the needs of human beings must come first. Poverty is here and now. Hunger is here and now. Racial tension is here and now. Pollution is here and now. These are the things that scream for a response. And if we don't listen to that…
