More quotes by Thomas Lovejoy
Conservation is sometimes perceived as stopping everything cold, as holding whooping cranes in higher esteem than people. It is up to science to spread the understanding that the choice is not between wild places or people, it is between a rich or an impoverished existence for Man.
Thomas Lovejoy
Genetic engineers don't make new genes, they rearrange existing ones.
Thomas Lovejoy
Natural species are the library from which genetic engineers can work.
