- Time is of the essence. We didnt know before, but now we do and its not an issue of pointing fingers or accusing anybody. Now that we know the consequences, we need to immediately change. It's time to find ways to prevent such chemicals from entering the environment in the first place, to find alternatives, and to anticipate problems before they occur. We cannot wait to find a cure for dangerous products after they are in the environment and in us. - quote from Jean-Michel Cousteau of the Ocean Futures Society. Quote appeared in this press release.
