For 40 years environmentalists have been calling attention to the impact of polluting factories, oil spills, toxic waste, pesticides, polluted water ways and oceans, and wildlife extinction on our environment. Global warming, water shortage, and food supply issues are hot topics at the forefront of discussion around the globe.
