The Untold Story Behind Today's Pollution Crisis - Gene H Hogberg & Eugene M Walter - June 1968

Gene H Hogberg & Eugene M Walter

Never before have so many ideas, inventions, costly equipment and broad-scale programs been employed to combat pollution. Yet, paradoxically, the air you breathe, the water you drink, the quality of life is deteriorating at an unparalleled rate. Why this dilemma? What is the way to solve our mounting pollution problem? We shall never have, on a nationwide basis, absolutely clean air or pristine pure water. There is a necessary and acceptable amount of each pollutant that society will tolerate." Shocking statement? It certainly is. But this admission by a leading U.S. Senator was only one of many alarming facts and conclusions presented at the National Pollution Control Exposition and Conference we attended in the Astrohall in this bustling metropolis of south Texas, April 3-5. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
