Dodging Pollution: An Underdog Story
Earthjustice - Non-Profit - www.earthjustice.org
Some of the worst air polluters have dodged controls for decades, pumping dirty air that makes playing outside a dangerous game for kids across the U.S. Though 2011 brings unprecedented opportunities to clean up these polluters, only public pressure can counteract the polluter lobby's influence. A humorous video can help: in a dodgeball game between kids and pollution, large men dressed as mercury, soot, and other pollutants hurl dodgeballs labeled with diseases (e.g. asthma ) while kids counter with balls marked "health" and "clean air". The message: join the kids' team to ensure dirty industries don't dodge clean air rules again.

Pollution is a vicious cycle because we as consumers feed the need for all the "stuff" that is produced. Only an agrarian society would save the planet now. The best thing we can do is to be more prudent in our consumption patterns. As long as the public demands the lifestyle for pollution, the "polluters" continue

Earthjustice is the best advocate for doing the right thing despite political or corporate pressure to do otherwise. We certainly can't trust our politicians to do it!
