Notes:
Abstract An overview of environmental concerns shows the grave consequences of overregulation and the current adversary postures of industry and government. Political action is often taken on the basis of preliminary research findings that have been extrapolated beyond scientific prudence. Ecological processes are so complex and man's impact so pervasive that actions based upon political expediency can often do more harm than good. The overview will include examples relating to energy, pollution, chemicals, and the impact on engineers and scientists.
