"The life of the planet and all of its inhabitants have been
positively affected by the extraordinary vision and work of Senator
Gaylord Nelson. The remarkable agenda he put forth in 1970 is ever
more salient today, his wisdom and words needed now more than
ever."--Paul G. Hawken, Natural Capital Institute, author of The
Ecology of Commerce
"You show me pollution and I will show you people who are not
paying their own way, people who are stealing from the public,
people who are getting the public to pay their costs of production.
All environmental pollution is a subsidy."--Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
