Pollution: Forecast for 2025
This is an excerpt from the paper...
As the twentieth century ends, scientists and politicians finally have begun to acknowledge the severity of the assault being endured by the global environment. For approximately the last 30 years environmentalists have been announcing that the world has reached a dangerous level of toxicity. In World War III: Population and the Biosphere at the End of the Millennium Michael Tobias argues that "our unrelenting proliferation" is going to lead first to overpopulation, next to an unsustainable environment, and third to the final extinction of all life forms. Now as this century draws to a close, experts and amateurs alike have begun to recognize that the world may soon reach toxic levels which could eventually make the earth uninhabitable. By focusing on the year 2025 as a target date, government officials, corporate leaders, scientists, environmentalists and ordinary citizens can begin to pool their resources and outline appropriate strategies for reducing active threats to the earth's sustainability. Al Gore as evidenced by the recent publication of his book, The Earth in Balance, has been actively seeking to make a commitment to a clean-up of the environment a corner stone of his Vice Presidency's environmentalist and educational policies. Sustainability recognizes that the earth has limited natural resources, that humans are part of the natural world and subject to its laws and that humans live best when they submit to and cooperate wi

aling with pollution's growth. By actively seeking to prevent pollution rather than to treat its aftermath, officials are hopeful that pollution will be more dramatically decreased by the year 2025.
Roughly since the turn of the century, Americans have learned to lament the passing of the bison population. So too they have learned that setting aside large plots of land for use as parks is not a luxury, but a necessity for the continuity of nature's web. As animals have become extinct over the last one hundred years worldwide concern has generated a list of endangered species, giving prohibitions against their slaughter and guidelines how to keep them alive. Yet new policy suggests that since all of nature is to be recognized as one vast interconnecting web, the disappearance of a species of plant or animal life can lead to drastic results. To that end, environmentalists have plotted that without rapid intervention within those ecospheres where species are threatened, the earth could be progressing toward its own desertification. This process of desertification can be seen as the result of loss of topsoil and the overproduction of agricultural lands so that eventually the only soil which remains there is akin to the desert
