Man Caught in the Straits of His Desires

Dimitrije Sergejev ; Faculty of Philosophy, Zagreb

Abstract

Commencing with the presentation of extensive data on the pollution of the river Rhine, the author continues to enumerate various indicators in different areas where the situation is no better. His thesis is that negligence and an attempt to avid costs are in the long run threatening human health and life, and that the last moment to take action for avoiding possible tragic consequences has come. He claims that the value of life has been reduced in the exact proportion the pollution of materials and resources indispensable for life has been increased. The author committedly points out the direction in which action must be taken and suggests some of the paths for improving the ecological situation.
