00:00I carried a child for nine months. Our little Julie was still born. The loss of our child may be a direct result to the chemicals. Please don't allow this to happen to anyone else before you get them out.
00:17Raw sewage was going right down the Hudson River. Air pollution was growing just as fast as new automobiles were coming out.
00:25The dams in the Grand Canyon, that was going to be a fight to the death.
00:30They were going to take the water out of the river, all of them.
00:34To these people, apparently, the balance of nature was something that was repealed as soon as man came on the scene.
00:41If we do not save the environment, then whatever we do in civil rights will be of no meaning, because then we will have the equality of extinction.
00:50And all of a sudden, people said, wait a second, this is not how we have to live.
00:57If I was to let the two EPA representatives come out the store, would anybody know what would happen to them?
01:06There is environmental extremism. I don't think they'll be happy until the White House looks like a bird's nest.
01:12The protesters were told not to block the trucks. They're now lying in the streets now, blocking one truck.
01:17It wasn't just a matter of holding up signs saying, stop killing the whales. No. Greenpeace wanted to get out there in front of the whaling boats and stop them.

01:34How do you hold forests in common when every other force around you is trying to get you to privatize?
01:40We are going to shed blood because of our lungs. We will. Our forefathers shed blood for our lungs.
01:49Americans understood what was going on and what the danger was, but still nothing happening in Washington. Not a damn thing.
01:56Global warming is the greatest single hoax ever perpetrated.
01:59I don't know. Do we have to have a hurricane take out Miami and Shanghai to have everybody wake up?
02:04If it happened next year, it might be possible to still do that.
02:07What a hell of a way to run a planet.
