For the Sake of Our Children

In Earthlight, a magazine devoted to "spiritual ecology," Robert Kennedy, Jr. looks at snowballing environmental dangers through a prism of morality. He writes with clarity and punch:

"Five years ago, if you asked the leaders of the major environmental groups in America, What's the gravest threat to the global environment?, they would have given you a range of answers: overpopulation, habitat destruction, global warming. Today, they will all tell you one thing: it's George W. Bush. This is the worst environmental president that we have ever had. ...[His administration is responsible for] a concerted, deliberate attempt to eviscerate thirty years of environmental law."
