Environmentalists tell us 1975 is the deadline for controlling environmentally destructive developments. The quality of our natural environment will begin to deteriorate rapidly after that.We | have been in an environmental decline since the late ’50’s. Pollu- tion of water and air, urbanization of land and using up of natural resources has been gradual. The | perpetuation of the automobile syndrome and our present materialistic values will eventu- ally result in an environmental disease few people can imagine. Progress is no longer economic growth in terms of industrial development and com- mercial :gain.. Neither is it con- tinual catering to self-indulgent. . society at the expense of the envi- ~ ronment - a philosophy which, when carried to its logical conclu- sion, is self-destructive. Real-progress is public awareness of the destructive: forces of a materialistic society and the planned development of our environment to rectify dam- age already done.and to save agricultural, recreationai and . wilderness areas for essential human contact. with nature.
