=== Values Survey: American Views on the Environment in an Era of Polarization and Conﬂicting Priorities," SRI Research Summary. October, 2006. === "Current environmental crises like global warming... are not as vivid. Vast, subtle and remote, they don’t seem to affect our daily lives. They don’t provide quick sound bites on cable news. And when they do make the news, professional naysayers dispute the ﬁndings and remind us of trade-offs. Meanwhile, a host of more pressing concerns, including war... clamor for attention." (Page 3)

White, Lynn Jr., "The Historical Roots of our Environmental Crisis, //Science//, March 10, 1967
" Man's unnatural treatment of nature and its sad results." (P. 1203)

"Quite unintentionally, changes in human ways often affect nonhuman nature." (p. 1203)

"Distribution of land was based no longer on the needs of a family but, rather, on the capacity of a power machine to till the earth. Man's relation to the soil was profoundly changed. Formerly man had been a part of nature; now he was the exploiter of nature." (P. 1205)
