Gaylord Nelson quotes
" Franklin Roosevelt was very concerned about environmental issues. "

Gaylord Nelson
" I think the internal combustion engine will disappear from the streets of our cities in the next thirty years because transportation will be mass transportation, or probably electrical power. "

Gaylord Nelson
" If we continue to address the issue of the environment where we live as though we're the only species that lives here, we'll create a disaster for ourselves. "

Gaylord Nelson
" In the last half century we haven't had Presidential leadership that addressed this question in the broadest and most important aspect. "

Gaylord Nelson
" In the state of Wisconsin it's mandated that teachers in the social sciences and hard sciences have to start giving environmental education by the first grade, through high school. "

Gaylord Nelson
" Loads of chemicals and hazardous wastes have been introduced into the atmosphere that didn't even exist in 1948. The environmental condition of the planet is far worse than it was 42 years ago. "

Gaylord Nelson
" Nuclear war is not inevitable, but major degradation of our environment with grave consequences is inevitable unless we reverse the trend. "

Gaylord Nelson
" President Bush calls himself an environmentalist. I think his heart's in the right place, but he hasn't demonstrated any leadership. "

Gaylord Nelson
" Teddy Roosevelt of course was a great outdoorsman all his life. "

Gaylord Nelson
" The fights in future will not be over whether we ought to do something, but over how we ought to do it, and that's a reasonable debate. "

Gaylord Nelson
" The issues are by some geometric number - 100 or 200 or 500 - times more complicated today than we appreciated them to be when Franklin Roosevelt was around. "

Gaylord Nelson
" The most important environmental issue is one that is rarely mentioned, and that is the lack of a conservation ethic in our culture. "

Gaylord Nelson
" The threat of nuclear war isn't nearly as important as the threat of the destruction of our resource base which sustains us. "

Gaylord Nelson
" We must recognize that we're all part of a web of life around the world. Anytime you extinguish a species, the consequences are serious. "

Gaylord Nelson
" We're going to have to do a whole lot more, and give nature at least a chance to repair some of the damage we've done. "
