Environmentalism
Description
Boyd, on the ecology project.
We all get impatient and things seem hard. But you know, the first Earth Day was in . . . was it 1970, I think? So it's only been about 37 years since people even noticed there was an ecology to project . . . to protect. Well now we're faced with literally saving the world. And so the problem has escalated very fast. But our consciousness of the problem has also . . . almost kept up. If we can more than keep up with the problem, then we can have a happy ending.
