Abstract

The various biases that might inhibit our reasoned business-related environmental discourse are reviewed. In addition, since our reasoned social discourse with respect to environmental policies can and is often interrupted by the obfuscations of business, two examples of attempted obfuscation are reviewed here: the coal industry’s rhetoric of “clean coal, and agriculture’s rhetoric concerning “concentrated animal feeding operations. The example of the North Atlantic Fishery depletion is reviewed. The classic Storm King legal precedent is also reviewed to provide an example of non-servile citizen involvement in environmental restoration.
