Text Quotes
The most intractable problem today is not pollution or technology or war; but the lack of belief that the future is very much in the hands of the individual  (Pollution Quotes) The gross national product includes air pollution and advertising for cigarettes, and ambulances to clear our highways of carnage. It counts special locks for our doors, and jails for the people who break them... It does not allow for the health of our families, the quality of thier education, or the joy of their play  (Pollution Quotes) It’s perilous and foolhardy for the average citizen to remain ignorant about global warming, say, or ozone depletion, air pollution, toxic and radioactive wastes, acid rain, topsoil erosion, tropical deforestation, exponential population growth. Jobs and wages depend on science and technology  (Pollution Quotes) I became an actor at a very young age, but I also had a deep respect for nature and I think I was sort of a little biologist when I was younger. I watched documentaries on rainforest pollution and the loss of species and habitats for animals around the world. It affected me in a very hardcore, emotional way when I was younger. So, later in life I wanted to continue that path more and investigate and learn more about ecological issues  (Pollution Quotes) The pollution they produce, market, sell, and show to billions around the world is at its core contemptuous of the country that gave them better lives than nearly 100 percent of everybody who’s ever lived. and they pass that contempt along for everyone to see  (Pollution Quotes) If ever we had proof that our nation’s pollution laws aren’t working, it’s reading the list of industrial chemicals in the bodies of babies who have not yet lived outside the womb  (Pollution Quotes) What they are doing is taking something that otherwise creates pollution and turning it into something useful  (Pollution Quotes) When you use a manual push mower, you’re cutting down on pollution and the only thing in danger of running out of gas is you!  (Pollution Quotes) We wring our hands over the miscarriages of technology and take its benefactions for granted. We are dismayed by air pollution but not proportionately cheered up by, say, the virtual abolition of poliomyelitis  (Pollution Quotes) Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we’ve been ignorant of their value  (Pollution Quotes) There is a societal cost of increased pollution, and that’s what I’m passionate about as a mother  (Pollution Quotes) Government cannot close its eyes to the pollution of waters, to the erosion of soil, to the slashing of forests any more than it can close its eyes to the need for slum clearance and schools  (Pollution Quotes) For plague and pestilence, plunder and pollution, the hazards of nature and the hunger of children are the foes of every nation. The earth, the sea and the air are the concern of every nation  (Pollution Quotes) The health effects of air pollution imperil human lives. This fact is well-documented  (Pollution Quotes) I spend a year at the Hoover Institute at Stanford, researching market approaches to air pollution control  (Pollution Quotes) Electric cars aren’t pollution - free; they have to get their energy from somewhere  (Pollution Quotes) I don’t want to wait 20 or 50 years for something to be done about petrochemical pollution  (Pollution Quotes) When I wrote ‘The Giver,’ it contained no so-called ‘bad words.’ It was set, after all, in a mythical, futuristic, and Utopian society. Not only was there no poverty, divorce, racism, sexism, pollution, or violence in the world of ‘The Giver’ there was also careful attention paid to language: to its fluency, precision, and power  (Pollution Quotes) Five states - Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Illinois and North Carolina - have been identified by the EPA as contributing significantly to Rhode Island pollution. As of 2010, 284 tall smokestacks - stacks over 500 feet - were operating in the United States: needles injecting poison into the atmosphere  (Pollution Quotes) Rhode Island works hard to reduce air pollution in our communities. We passed laws to prohibit cars and buses from idling their engines and to retrofit school buses with diesel pollution controls. But there is only so much a single state can do, particularly against out-of-state pollution  (Pollution Quotes) Nuclear man is the man who realizes that his creative powers hold the potential for self-destruction. He sees that in this nuclear age vast new industrial complexes enable man to produce in one hour that which he labored over for years in the past, but he also realizes that these same industries have disturbed the ecological balance and, through air and noise pollution, have contaminated his own milieu  (Pollution Quotes) Air pollution is not merely a nuisance and a threat to health. It is a reminder that our most celebrated technological achievements-the automobile, the jet plane, the power plant, industry in general, and indeed the modern city itself-are, in the environment, failures  (Pollution Quotes) Children whose developing lungs are particularly vulnerable suffer the most from air pollution. For children, breathing the air in cities with the worst pollution, such as Beijing, Calcutta, Mexico City, Shanghai, and Tehran, is equivalent to smoking two packs of cigarettes a day  (Pollution Quotes) Air pollution is a threat to health, especially of older persons. It contributes significantly to the rising rates of chronic respiratory ailments. It stains our cities and towns with ugliness, soiling and corroding whatever it touches. Its damage extends to our forests and farmlands as well. The economic toll for our neglect amounts to billions of dollars each year  (Pollution Quotes) I am involved with so many charitable organizations. Lung Cancer because of my dad, Breast Cancer because as a woman and mother of two daughters I have to be, Lupus for my sister, Crohn’s disease for a dear friend, as well as Oceana and The Plastic Pollution Coalition because we have to be responsible to save the planet!  (Pollution Quotes) Rio is an energetic, vibrant place, full of beauty and nature. But we face the kinds of problems any developing metropolis does - with pollution, traffic congestion, poverty. Distribution of green areas, for example, is not uniform. Madureira, the heart of the suburb in Rio, is a concrete jungle  (Pollution Quotes) It’s a shame, but also for kids it’s so easy now for them to download it to their phone and listen to it everywhere. If you go to Lille Eurostar station there is music playing: Why? What’s the point? It’s like showing someone a movie on a small crappy screen. It should be sounding good! There’s a lot of noise pollution, in that sense  (Pollution Quotes) It is a fact that, up to seven million people a year are dying from fossil fuel pollution. It is a fact that we are already dealing with the catastrophe of climate change in places like California, where people have been burnt out of their homes and where they are dealing with record droughts  (Pollution Quotes) Maryland is among the nation’s most vulnerable states to the effects of sea level rise from climate change, and we are taking strong action to reduce carbon pollution  (Pollution Quotes) It isn’t pollution that’s harming the environment. It’s the impurities in our air and water that are doing it.  (Pollution Quotes)
