"...Five years in the making, the regulations would set new limits on concentrations of over 100 toxins -- from pesticides to PCBs -- PERMITTED to be discharged into waterways from factories, sewage plants and other industrial facilities." (emphasis mine) That is the reality of municipal responsibility around the World and a death sentence to life on Earth. It is SO OBVIOUS that no such permissions should EVER have been given and were so because of ingrained political corruption. Wherever you go that despicable arrangement sets the people up for all the diseases imaginable and gives the doctor business all the traffic they could ever hope for, and this degenerate system is described as a "healthy growing economy" ( ! ) I am trying to persuade people to stop this fast track to self-extinction, but it is so utterly corrupt I often wonder if any appeal to reason has any chance of persuading this greed/growth-addicted society to do anything but more of the same.
