RE: Smoking a Forest Could be Hazardous to Your Health
Yes, I think we really could be doing things much more efficiently but it seems like we are suffering from a "bad case of capitalism," LOL. Hopefully it is not a terminal diagnoses.
Regulations always have a way of being circumvented. Some companies are even starting to use chemicals that were banned internationally long ago. See: Mysterious rise in banned ozone-destroying chemical shocks scientists I guess these chemicals are cheaper to use than the risk of fines they may face if they are caught using them.
The price that we pay for the greed of others is environmental catastrophe and poisoning because of the processed products we are using everyday which large industries created which sometimes gets above the law.
