"This is a photo my father sent back to his wife and children back in Portugal shortly after arriving in the U.S. He is aboard the Connie F, a wooden boat owned by his brother Joseph, accompanied by the husband of his youngest sister, Gloria. The owner of the boat sponsored all but one of his siblings into the country and all men worked on the Connie F for different periods of time even when none of them had been fishermen in Portugal. Location: Pier 3."

Environmental Groups

Environmental organizations are both good and bad. State and federal governments have large departments that oversee environmental issues such as water and air pollution. These agencies have staffs of scientists and experienced technical personnel to plan and implement environmental protection programs and monitor environmental quality, and they generally manage to get the job done on their own.

While it is good that private citizens take an interest in such matters as well, private environmental groups often do as much harm as good. What they may lack in technical and scientific proficiency, they often make up for with media savvy. A phone call to Eye Witness News and the mere utterance of any number of keywords ( such as simply POLLUTION ! ) will automatically get their opinions on the air and in print, whether they are right or wrong.
