(From the July/Aug 2000 Archives) AN INTERVIEW WITH DR. RICH INGEBRETSEN: WHY HE WANTS TO DRAIN LAKE POWELL

An excerpt:

Rich: Good will win out. Good is life and preserving life I really think people will see this. Politics is a different thing–politics is money. It’s evil and corrupt. But people have good hearts and they know what’s right. They’ll see it. Even Jim Hansen will see it. He has an obligation as a politician to protect money. When he said that the fish of the Colorado River are trash, he was just being stupid. Honestly I don’t look at those guys as real bright, so I don’t worry about them. They’re politicians.

But people know what’s right. Honestly people are willing to make sacrifices if we give them good alternatives. It’ll work.
