Protect the Planet

Problem: The ecological systems on which we depend for survival are being destroyed and we're financing their destruction.

Solution: Require federally funded programs to meet an environmental sustainability test, ensuring that tax dollars won't subsidize pollution and destruction of our natural resource base or encourage environmentally unsustainable development.

Detailed Proposal

See Revolution X, by Rob Nelson and Jon Cowan, pages 112-115. I will put this proposal on-line soon.
