So the funds have been found to perpetrate the crime.

Building a land-based sewage treatment plant is nothing less, for it uses a law intended to protect the environment to almost certainly do it harm.

There is no point in the scientists and medical health officers devoting their lives to science and medicine; more note is taken of economists.

Fifty years of research on three continents is being ignored, but it is the trashing of lives that is most sickening.

The cost-benefit is being ignored.

How many lives could be saved in medicine, or how much benefit could be accrued in education with the use of upwards of a billion dollars?

I finish with one of many quotes from my book, VictoriaB次元官网网址檚 Sewage Circus. UK Royal Commission on environmental pollution, 1984: B次元官网网址淲ith well-designed sewage outfalls, we believe that discharge to the sea is not only acceptable, but in cases environmentally preferable.B次元官网网址�

Nowhere are conditions better than here.
