I would like to have some response from you before I procede. Let s create a model educational program on the neighborhood properties that the university owns from Troost to Holmes and from 53rd to 55th. No one would lose their homes or be forcibly moved. The neighborhood would be enhanced. And the University would gain an educational program worthy of its world class ambitions.
Polls show that most people want to live their lives in a way that is easier on the environment.
Looking around, things seem pretty much the same as they did in 1970 when we had the first Earth Day. We have made some progress but over all we are using more resources and polluting more than ever. It is difficult for us to change. Many environmentalists believe that it will take a major disaster before people really walk their talk. Disaster does elicit change but so does education.
