3. The Moronic Sport: ORVs on Public Lands
   Resource Type: Article/Report/Letter
   Published: 2008
   I do not accept the premise that abuse of our lands is something that we must tolerate as inevitable. It is our land. It is our children's land, and their children's land. We have a responsibility to pass these lands on to the next generation in better condition than we found them.
   Talking about promoting 'responsible' ORV use is like suggesting we ought to promote "responsible wife abuse" or "responsible child abuse."
   
4. Noisewatch Online
   Organization profile published 2005
   Resource Type: Organization
   NoiseWatch (formerly Citizens' Coalition Against Noise) is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to raising public awareness of the negative effects of noise, founded in November 1994. In order to ensure maximum effectiveness, we operate in a neutral manner. We provide information and assistance to anyone affected by noise pollution. NoiseWatch does not intervene or represent individual noise cases; instead we will listen, provide information, and send self-help guides on request. In listening to people's experiences, group members realized that the general public's health, use and enjoyment of their homes, and general quality of life, was suffering due to excessive noise. Further:
   * Excessive noise exposure is a public health hazard and is just as important as air and water pollution.
   * People are becoming less tolerant of excessive noise, particularly at home and in recreational areas.
   * Government officials, landlords, business owners, and the public in general, do not know how to effectively deal with neighbour noise complaints or large scale noise problems such as: traffic (air/land), commercial and industrial noise, recreational noise, and outdoor maintenance, etc..
   * The public in general, and government officials, including police, treat noise complaints as a low priority item or a non-issue. Many people state that officials brushed off complaints with "one person's noise is another person's music".
