THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 7, 196a MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON i B Dr. Revelle Sees Scientific Threat For Environment By JOSEPH L. MYLER United Press International Washington - UFD - What man is doing to the land, the air, the waters of the earth, and to other creatures may be hurting him both mentally and physically and jeopardiz ing his future. Even radio waves "are pre sumed to affect human bio logy." So, in the words of Dr. Roger Revelle, "it would seem unwise to continue to tamper with environment without, concurrently, striv ing to determine the real and lasting effects of our actions." Revelle, a noted geophysi cist, is scientific advisor to Secretary of Interior Stewart L. Udall. He and a group of other experts, working under the auspices of the National Academy of Sciences, recent ly drafted a report on natural resources for President Ken nedy. Man's Environment Revelle wrote a section on the environment and what man is doing to it. "Perhaps," Revelle said, "the most critical and most often ignored resource is man's total environment." "We live in a period of so cial and technological revolu tion," he continued, "in which man's ability to manipulate the process of nature for his own economic and social pur poses is increasing at a rate which his forebears would find frightening." For thousands of years man did little to nature. In the past few hundred years he has changed it radically. Now he is pouring fumes and smoke and radioactive materials into the atmos phere. He is altering the earth's surface by felling forests, planting new ones, over-grazing grasslands, cul tivating more and more land, building cities and highways. Polluting Streams . . He is polluting his streams, air - conditioning his homes and offices, and filling the air with noise. The effects of the chanBcs man "has wrought in the bal ance of great natural forces . . . are but dimly perceived and not at all well understood." Neurological disorders and physiological damage huve been traced to some of the poisons being dumped Into me air and water. Cancer and heart disease "are In soma way environmenlally-Jinked." Now man is talking of al tering his climate and at tempting in a small way to control weather. Changes Harmful Some of the changes hu man beings are making in their environment are good but "some may be very harm ful," Revelle said. "That we often do not have any clcarcut idea of their impact on man, or of man's response," he said, "is cause for concern." It is time, he suggested, that all the sciences seek to find out what man is doing to him self as a result of what he is doing to the world around him.
