"Travels with Buzz" Documentary
Buzz Holling, from "Men, Money and Microscopes," filmed by Dick Bocking and David Suzuki for CBC, 1972:
I think we have to mobilize a major effort to try to make science a servant to man.
Holling again, from "The Biosphere Film Project," filmed by Dick Bocking for CBC in 1988, but never aired:
Over the last decade and a half, there has been truly a stunning increase in our understanding of the way the planet ticks in its chemical, physical, biological and human attributes - an increase that has become the foundation of a movement of collaboration among scientists in international diplomatic circles towards a status for man that is one of working in harmony with the whole global environment.
Really, what we see now is a watershed. It's a watershed in terms of the evolutionary history of the planet. The impact man is now making as this new planetary force is of a magnitude and a consequence just as great as happened four and a half billion years ago when plants first appeared and started to turn the atmosphere from one of carbon dioxide and methane to one rich in oxygen and, as a consequence, rich in opportunity.
