Legislative Agenda
Government regulation has succeeded in reducing the potential
growth of unnecessary pollution but has failed
to protect the public health from pollution. While a person's first
responsiblity is to protect
him/herself and family from pollution through personal lifestyle choices,
it is necessary to work to reduce unnecessary pollution at the source to
achieve real protection. This is most effective done on the at the local
and State level, appealing both to the polluters themselves as well as
to people selling land for new pollution sources, and appealing to government
to act in the interest of the public health.
