Former NJ Governor Says Protecting Our Environment Requires Responsible Citizens

(Published on Apr 25, 2013) It's refreshing to hear a civic leader clarify the essential responsibilities of citizens. Former Governor Christine Todd Whitman made these pointed remarks at a Citizens' Forum on Environmental Literacy at the Newark Museum, April 25, 2011. "There is a cumulative impact of individual behavior. We've got to get citizens to recognize that individual actions add up to a lot over time. We have to remind them that protecting [our resources] is part of their responsibility." Christine Todd Whitman, 50th Governor of New Jersey.
