I have a different and somewhat controversial view on environmental affairs than many people.
Many activists feel that any actions humans take are automatically environmentally harmful.
They feel that we should have as little effect on the biosphere as possible. What I do believe is that we need to be very aware of what we are doing, and how we must be always alert to ways in which we affect ourselves and our environment. I feel that through research and education, we, as a species will eventually learn to make the correct choices. We need to determine how our actions will affect the world we will pass on to our children and we need to make the necessary decisions to ensure it is a better planet than we inherited from our parents. I am very interested in ISO 14000 and very enthusiastic about the possibilities of its ability to reduce pollution.
