Here in Florida we have a river Called the steinhatchie. Decades ago the government gave the owners of a huge paper mill an exemption in regards to pollution. Over these decades the company has killed this river and the pollution is dumped into the Gulf of Mexico killing much of that body of water and causing red tide.
This occurs today and everyday even now.
This used to happen all over the U.S. and is now happening all over China.

Yeah, go and earn money but don't kill the environment.

This is something I think most conservatives firmly believe. Unfortunately the conservative politicians don't act like. Environmentalism used to be a conservative cause, with promotion of converative policies.

It has now given as a gift to the left which is a real shame as we begin to face increasingly more significant global environmental issues.

This is basically what I have been posting for a long time now, so we are in agreement.

"Yeah, go and earn money but don't kill the environment."

And this is the problem in America today. On one side you have radical environmentalists who understand that we need pristine land to live and on the other you have corporations, who produce their products and do at times pollute.

What we should be doing is putting both groups together to work together to produce the best solutions while eliminating government regs that stifle growth. Give incentives based on partnerships.
