Peer reviewedJacobsen, Sally – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1974
Discusses the characteristics of the 1970 Illinois environmental program and the backlash activities taken by the Illinois General Assembly during the spring 1973 session. Indicates that the momentum of pollution fight is weakened by declining public support. (CC)

Peer reviewedLeich, Harold H. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1975
Our present sewage disposal systems are ecologically unsound because they risk transmitting diseases, waste water, cost too much, increase lake eutrophication, and build up sludge. Sewerless toilets are being developed which can solve these problems. (MR)

Peer reviewedParsegian, V. L. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1971
There should be a "shifting of emphasis from fossil fuel to nuclear systems as quickly as possible," but with a major change in the design of reactor systems to enable more efficient use of the total energy produced. Waste heat may be used for agriculture. (AL)

Peer reviewedNewill, Vaun A. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1973
Discusses the detrimental effects of air pollution, and especially sulfur dioxide, on human health. Any relaxation of existing national air pollution standards because of the energy crisis could be costly in terms of the nation's health. (JR)

Peer reviewedSpinrad, Bernard I. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1971
The American energy crisis is real in that our supplies of fuel which can meet standards imposed on utility emissions are short, and their price is high. It is artificial in that many of the standards could be partially relaxed, and cheaper fuel used by utilities without significant public insult. ...Nuclear power from fission is our best bet."…

Peer reviewedMarx, Wesley – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1973
Los Angeles city has acute air pollution problems because of lack of an adequate mass transit system and the type of local industries. Air pollution in Los Angeles has affected agricultural production, vegetation, and public health in nearby areas. (PS)

Peer reviewedChilton, Frank; And Others – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1972
Describes a proposed system that can lift streamlined vehicles up to a foot off aluminum guideways, providing high-speed, pollution-free interurban transport. (AL)

Peer reviewedPaterson, Arthur E., III – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1975
Despite a rising tide of contamination, effective controls of marine pollution appear dubious because of conflicting national and economic interests. Since countries can not agree on problems such as national sovereignty, dispute settlement, jurisdiction over oil on the Continental Shelf and international seabed sources, marine pollution will…

Peer reviewedCroke, E. J.; Roberts, J. J. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1971
Describes a model of an air pollution control strategy, closely integrated with urban and regional planning, based upon attaching well defined emission rights to each parcel of land in a region. (AL)

Peer reviewedBoulding, Kenneth E. – Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 1971
Examines survival as related to the theory of betterment: that is how things go from bad to better instead of from bad to worse." Identifies a number of deteriorating systems in the society: consumption-production system, overload, joint production of good and bad, the accumulation of small evils associated with good, failure in the knowledge…
