| Message | With decreased regulations on business and industry, pollution would increase greatly. Increased pollution brings more health problems and increased sickness to our people. Do you think the people of the great Pontesia are going to want to go out and purchase goods when they're bed ridden from pollution sickness? We think not. |

| Message | The UUP would like to see more action, not less, taken by our government to control pollution which has a severe and irreversible negative effect on our people, as well as take more action in enforcing recycling to ensure a green and thriving planet. We will oppose this bill. |
