Try and keep it simple. If we do everything we can to keep our water air and soil clean, we get to live longer & better. While protecting future generations.
That's not true. In fact, that is the absolute opposite of the truth.
If you want to do "everything we can".... to keep water, air, and soil clean....
Then you would need to never use energy. Never engage in industry. Never build buildings, because building stuff cause pollution. You can't build a house without tearing up the ground, and cutting down trees, or making bricks with fire....
So in order to truly do everything you can to avoid any pollution, would mean going back to living like apes, or cavemen.
You won't live better, or longer. Aside from the exposure to the elements, and parasites, and dirty water from naturally contaminated wells and rivers, and attacked by wild animals.... aside from all of that....
Without modern 'dirty' farming and ranching, literally billions of people would die. So no food. No food = mass starvation.
There won't be future generations if we did "everything we can" to avoid any possible pollution.
