Description:
The Natural Resources Defense Council's purpose is to safeguard the Earth: its people, its plants and animals and the natural systems on which all life depends. We work to restore the integrity of the elements that sustain life -- air, land and water -- and to defend endangered natural places. We seek to establish sustainability and good stewardship of the Earth as central ethical imperatives of human society. NRDC affirms the integral place of human beings in the environment. We strive to protect nature in ways that advance the long-term welfare of present and future generations. We work to foster the fundamental right of all people to have a voice in decisions that affect their environment. We seek to break down the pattern of disproportionate environmental burdens borne by people of color and others who face social or economic inequities. Ultimately, NRDC strives to help create a new way of life for humankind, one that can be sustained indefinitely without fouling or depleting the resources that support all life on Earth.

The Canadian gov't isn't 100% on environmental issues either, but a LOT better than the U.S.

"Crimes Against Nature" is a REALLY good book. About how the gov't put all the polluters in charge of federal agencies.

A lot of good causes are in trouble because of government policies, and thanks to the stupid voting machines, we can't change the government.

RFK Jr. & Mike Papantonio do the radio show "Ring of Fire." They filed a lawsuit against the stupid voting machines two years ago and it is just now getting to court -- the gov't delayed it as long as they could.

I think he's really cool -- I liked his book "Crimes Against Nature" and I like his radio show.

Isn't this the group that RFK Jr. works for?

I don't have personal problems either. In case they are happy, they simply have to proceed like this.

I guess they are making one mistake. They only rely on their own strange but they fail to look for coalitions.
