...who obviously isn't on the IPAA payroll. Your mention of the nerve gas disposal nightmare is of particular interest to me, since it has relevance to another controversial waste disposal
issue, nuclear fuel waste.
What really ticks me off is that many of these practices, if properly managed and carefully developed, might very well be perfectly safe and of great commercial value to society. But this desperation to get away with as much profit at as little expense as possible, and damn the consequences to everyone else, will only make it politically impossible to implement them in the future (not to mention endanger lives and property today and tomorrow). This is exactly the kind of greed that killed the nuclear power industry in this country.
When you factor in the water shortages now affecting irrigation interests in the West, this kind of environmental rape really becomes intolerable. Drill, baby, drill.
