The benefits to citizens of modern industrial society may have peaked sometime in recent decades, and increasingly, we are paying the penalties of careless consumption and wanton pollution of our own nest. I am a Univeristy student. And when I was in High school I joined a Environmental organisation called "REHUDA".and the main idea was, "Either you are part of the problem or part of the solution". In an ideal world, everyone would seek personal heath and well being, but at the same time would strive to restore planet health. Smart people realize that no personal benefit will survive long in a world that is ailing, polluted and careening toward more man-made disasters.
The really sad part of our current predicament is that all the right ideas have been around for decades and have been clearly articulated in many forms by a host of intelligent people. The right ideas involve unselfish and compassionate behavior. The right ideas involve long-term planning, conservation and a deep commitment to preserving the natural world. Without a healthy natural environment, there will be few or no healthy humans.
The problem I am noticing in Toronto for the last few months is the lack of awareness among new immigrants coming to Toronto.
