What is the greatest environmental problem where you live?

Here in Kentucky a couple areas have major problems.



In Louisville (esp the western Ohio River waterfront) there are 3 coal belching power plants when fill the air with dust and mercury. Even worse are the gigantic mounds of Coal Ash which contain even higher amounts of mercury that the stack pipes. Wind storms pick up the ash and dump it in areas just downwind of the site

I only know what I see and that is litter and the lack of recycling. I live in an upscale condo community. Hardly anyone recycles and some even tease ,e because I do. I always tell them that is someday I am to be judged and I am asked how I respected the gift of this planet I can say, I recycled, I tried to buy products that were enviormentally friendly, not tested on animals etc. I cut plastic strips that hold beverages so no animal can get caught in them etc. I am mortified at how people will tolerate trash on their lawns and by their homes. Disgusting. Even if you rent, you still live there. I have to pick up the trash on my property and about 15 of the neighbors. If I don't it will blow onto my property. The thinking that "this is someones elses job" has got to stop.

Worldwide, the greatest environmental problems come down to one thing and one thing only.



OVERPOPULATION



Its that simple. We have polluted the earth with far more people than the earth is capable of carrying without dramatic changes. We need to produce, produce, produce, just to support too many people. This is destroying the environment.



WE are the ultimate problem to the environment.
