"The World Game: To make the world work for 100% of humanity in the shortest possible time through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense or the disadvantage of anyone."
-- Buckminster Fuller
"No environmental problem threatens the 'planet' or rates with the danger of nuclear war. No oil spill ever caused suffering on a par with today's civil war in Yugoslavia, which is a minor episode in human misery. World War II left more than 35 million dead. Cambodia's civil war resulted in 1 million or 3 million deaths. The great scourges of humanity remain what they have always been: war, natural disaster, oppressive government, crushing poverty and hate. On any scale of tragedy, environmental distress is a featherweight."
-- Robert J. Samuelson, Newsweek, June 1, 1992
