[ RadSafe ] Reasoning the Unreasonables (frm:Chernobyl's Reduced Impact)

[Maury Siskel]

I failed to find  "... getting rid of 300,000 human beings a day ...", 
but the following interview reflects a pretty pragmatic view of 
environmental problems.

Other quotes:
If we go on the way we have, the fault is our greed and if we are not 
willing to change, we will disappear from the face of the globe, to be 
replaced by the insect.
Jacques Cousteau

The road to the future leads us smack into the wall. We simply ricochet 
off the alternatives that destiny offers. Our survival is no more than a 
question of 25, 50 or perhaps 100 years.
Jacques Cousteau

Addressing a group of science journalists in 1992, he [Cousteau] said, 
"However serious problems are, such as pollution, desertification, 
depletion of the ozone layer, warming up of the planet, transportation 
of dangerous materials by air or by sea, or elimination of living 
species, we remain practically unaware of the main cause of all the 
threats that menace our planet and our future: the population explosion."
