Ah, a fellow conspiracist, Dean?

I believe I'm agreeing with Amphibious... river deltas act as a natural filter. BUT I don't think it's just the government that needs to change its tune. We are all guilty of self-concernment, (is that a word? how about self-interest?) not out of selfishness but just because one is focused on one's needs first. That filters out all kinds of ways, leading to us leveling deltas and rainforests, killing off endangered species, etc. Then when we go to try and "fix" a problem, like growing corn for ethanol for "greener" cars, we create even more problems. I believe we should try to put the world back the "way it was" before we started messing with it, it would be healthier for the entire human race. Just don't ask me how, I have no idea.

I'm a fan of Dr. Ian Malcom's statement that we're not killing the planet, we're making it inhospitable for ourselves.

... have I elaborated on my dolphin/Atlantis theory yet?
