"This book is the item-by-item presentation of the ways in which we have ignored ecological principles and abused our environment under the pressures of overpopulation and a creed of exploitation. The results of our greed are all around us: the prehistoric redwoods are being sacrificed to fence tiny housing development yards, Lake Erie is a gummy morass, the Hudson is a sewer, our wildlife is vanishing, our air is noxious, and we suffer from hostilities induced by noise and overcrowding. No longer can we ignore the warnings of "A Moment In The Sun". To do so would not only guarantee the destruction of our country now--but for all time!" -- from liner notes
