I totally agree, Cynthia.  I am afraid this is turning into one of those "purist" discussions, like can I eat meat and still call myself an "environmentalist."  And, please, please, don't start in on that discussion again.

>From Cynthia Price:

I'm rarely tempted to join in these debates -- especially since my 
employer's name and not mine seems to appear as the sender (which is by 
design most of the time). But I was entirely perplexed by Chris "Greenbean" 
Greene's response, and would have forwarded a definition of environment had 
someone not already done so by the time I read it. I would second the 
response below, indeed underscore it by posing the question how, even if 
one takes only the first definition of "surroundings," this critical issue 
could be omitted from a consideration of "the environment." Have I missed 
something?

If people don't think lead exposures from indoor paint and the related but
distinct problem of lead exposure from contaminated soils are an
environmental issue, when at least 40,000 Michigan children are affected, I
don't know what IS an environmental issue.
