Forest protection does not limit our resources but 'on the contrary, gives the assurance of larger and more certain supplies.'

We must find better and more efficient ways to use our timber supply, ways which are consistent with our environmental values.

We must give even greater attention to the protection and renewal of our forest resources.

We must improve the technology for reclaiming and recycling forest products.

The price of economic growth need not be the deterioration of our lives and our surroundings.

I urge all our citizens to join with outdoor sportsmen in the wise use of our natural resources and in insuring their proper management for the benefit of future generations.

We want peace that will last, not peace that will be simply for a little while.

The bill is thus one of the first fruits of our new emphasis on careful advance analysis of environmental challenges.

The battle for a better environment can be won, and we are winning it.

We must not use them wastefully.

To preserve the good earth is a great goal.

Our people will be denied their heritage if they must live out their lives among polluted rivers, spoiled fields and forests, and streets where nothing pleases the eye.

Like the problem of the cities, water pollution can no longer be attacked piecemeal.

In our quest for more livable and more beautiful cities, there will be no slowing down or turning back.

This is the great conservation. This is the way that we must go.

We must continue to sustain high employment without inflation.

We must find ways to allow more 're-use' of waste water at reasonable costs.

We must remove or control nutrients that cause excessive growth of plant life in streams, lakes and estuaries.
