In your opinion are environmental hazards something we should be concerned about on a daily basis?
I think that it would be unreasonable for us to worry about environmental hazards every second of every day. However, I think that the prevention and management of environmental hazards should be a priority in out society as a whole and in our individual lives.
Why should we care about something that happened over 30 years ago?
It is important to understand the mistakes we have made in the past so that we can more effectively prevent them and remedy them in the future. That aside, many of the environmental hazards that happened 30 years ago, such as love canal, still affect us today because of their lasting effects.
Environmental tragedies still exist today; what can we do today to mitigate these problems?
By raising awareness of our environmental problems, we can do more to solve them. When I posted the links on my profile, so many of my friends were shocked to see the magnitude and effect of these environmental hazards and they wanted to know what they could do to fix them. Education alone could make a huge dent in improving the reaction to environmental hazards.

- Christopher Lloyd Of course we should be careful when drilling and take precautions that spills don't happen or can be better contained after an accident, but there are thousands of off shore drilling sites in the world and they provide a great supply of oil in areas that wouldn't be used for anything otherwise(what else are you going to do with 100 square meters a mile off the coast of Alaska?). There is plenty of research being done to find other energy sources, but until oil can be replaced (or we run out) It would be stupid to bag off shore drilling because of fear of an environmental accidents. So... no i would say there are better things to think about on a daily basis.31 minutes ago via mobile · Like
