Is NIMBY Good Enough ???

Here is an essay dealing with toxic substances which are invading our homes:

It is a misconception to think we can manufacture such things ANYWHERE on this planet safely. No matter where such poisons are produced and stored, they eventually will seep out and affect the health of EVERYONE.

Science and technology are NOT our friends. Today they are chiefly tools through which the rich get and stay rich, while the poor suffer the consequences.

That is not to say that science and technology are inherently bad; but they are NOT being used effectively to improve the welfare of We The People.
