One doesn't need to look far to see evidence of environmental abuse. The message is clear: Environmental protection is not a choice; it is a necessity. We must rectify misuses of the past, atone for the mistakes of the present, and ensure the well-being of future generations. In this timely volume, Donald T. Wells focuses on the sensitive issues surrounding environmental policy. Exploring the ecological basis of life, the author helps readers to separate fact from fiction, to correctly interpret these facts, and to determine their significance for human actions. In addition, Wells searches for ways to restore and sustain environmental quality.
