' There are limits to what'
one individual can do to
protect the environment.
That's where ECOS, Inc,
comes in.
An environmental
organization, ECOS was
founded in 1969 at UNC by a
handful of graduate
students. It now has more
than 800 members of all ages
from all over North Carolina
and there are chapters in
Rocky Mount, Raleigh,
Durham and Chapel Hill.
The executive office is In
Chapel Hill.
ECOS advises Its members
on lound environmental
lifestyles and also involves
itself In large environmental
Issues, It helped block plans
to pave a road In the Llnvllle
Gorge area, has opposed
stream channelisation and Is
a plaintiff In the New Hope
Dam suit.
"The real reason most
people Join ECOS," said
Executive Director Watson
Morris, "is that, simply
because of other com
mitments, they don't have
time to spend a lot of time
looking after the en
vironment. "That's where ECOS
comes in. We're the
professionals and have much
more time than the average
busy citizen."
There are three types of
ECOS memberships: $5
annually for individuals; $10
annually for couples; and
$2.50 per semester for
students. The organization
was recently granted tax
exempt status so any con
tributions are now tax
deductible.
Membership in ECOS
includes subscriptions to its
two publications the
Environmental Bulletin and
the Newsletter. Both are
published about five times a
year.
The Newsletter discusses
activities of each chapter
and advises individuals how
to live with minimal adverse
effects on the environment.
The Environmental
Bulletin discusses timely
environmental issues in
depth. The latest issue was a
25-page paper opposing
Carolina Power & Light
Company's plan to build a
nuclear generating station in
Wake County. (This paper
plus an 85-page appendix
was also sent to members of
the General Assembly,
newspaper editors and local
and state government of
ficials. ) Other topics covered
In the Environmental
Bulletin include the New
Hope Dam and the steady
state economy.
In its statement on the CP
ft L project, ECOS presents a
number of alternatives to
present power consumption
practices. "We show many,
many ways In which con
sumption of energy can be
greatly reduced," Morris
said. "The power com
panies, as far as I can tell,
, are interested mainly in
increasing supply. ECOS is
interested in decreasing
demand. That is the fundi
amenta! difference in our
approach."
ECOS also is interested in
preserving wilderness areas
and in promoting bicycling.
"One of the latest things
we've done, and one of which
we are proudest, is suggest
to a number of banks in the
state that they use recycled
paper for such things as
form letters and envelopes.
Central Carolina Bank, I am
happy to report, Is now
testing recycled paper for
some of its routine printing, i
As far as we are concerned,
CCB la a real leader in this
area," Morris said.
Althoush recycled naner Is
more expensive at the
present time, Morris says
there are several good
reasons for its use: con
servation of energy, con
servation of forest resour
ces, and alleviation of litter.
"A fundamental problem
today is that we have a high
consumption, high waste
economy," he said. "We
need to change that to a low
consumption, low waste
economy.
"I am optimistic about the
potential for changing
people's views and their
habits," he continued.
"There are considerable
grounds for this optimism.
People are becoming more
interested in the en
vironment and want to help.
Many more people are
calling us for advice. And the
price of waste paper is going
up - an indication that the
demand for recycled paper
is increasing. There are lots
of signs that the situation is
improving."
The ECOS membership
includes people of all ages.
The Chapel Hill chapter, for
example, is composed of
students, faculty and
townspeople.
"We like to consider our
members not simply as
people who gave $5 once
upon a time, but as active
people who can occasionally
be called on to write a letter
or to do other things,"
Morris said.
Since receiving tax
exempt status, ECOS has
received a grant from the
America the Beautiful Fund
to produce a 30-second
television film promoting
bicycling. As a tax exempt
organization, Morris feels
ECOS has a better chance to
twelve, similar grants and
contributions.
Anyone Interested In
Joining ECOS, making a
contribution or receiving the
publications should write

Hill, N.C. 27514.

By MARION SWINDELL
The story Is told of s
man walking down the
street with s friend. They
stopped to buy s newi pa
per from s very rude new-
lie. The purchiser of the
paper was exceptionally
nice and courteous to the
newtie, but he didn't even
acknowledge their pre
sence.
"He is like that all the
time." shrugged the man
"Then why do you con
tinue to be polite to him?"
asked his friend.
"Why not?" he inquired
Why should I let him de
cide how I m going to act"
How many of us react to
people when we should
act? We often let others
dictate how we will be-
Get an impolite reception
-offer an impolite reaction."
After all is said-the
greatest people sre those
who do not let others de
cide how they are going
to act. "
A little kindness some
times breaks down the bar-
rie ti of indifference.
THOUGHT TO REMEMBER:
"You alone eta decide what
ktad of panes you will be
todsy.".
