We're not environmentally doing very good things to this planet, and we might not be around too long.

I see a future where getting to work or to school or to the store does not have to cause pollution.

Cheap natural gas is a big stimulus to petrochemical production and a meaningful one for all U.S. manufacturing.

I believe within five to 10 years most larger corporations will switch to greener industrial enzymes, not just for the environment but also for their bottom line.

Low-cost, high-grade coal, oil and natural gas - the backbone of the Industrial Revolution - will be a distant memory by 2050. Much higher-cost remnants will still be available, but they will not be able to drive our growth, our population and, most critically, our food supply as before.

All we can hope for is that the thing is going to slowly and imperceptibly shift. All I can say is that 50 years ago there were no such thing as environmental policies.

Of course, as consumers, we want cheap and good products; however, if these production processes are exceeding wastewater discharge standards and even causing heavy metal pollution, they will cause long-lasting damage to the ecological environment and public health.

So I'm going to go on and work on preserving the ozone layer, encouraging everyone to recycle.

I hope to see an integrated solution created to deal with both the local pollution problem and the global climate change problem.
