Capitalism is destroying the ecosystem: Ahmadinejad
Tehran Times Political Desk


 

TEHRAN - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said that capitalism is the 
main factor contributing to environmental destruction. 


Ahmadinejad made the remarks in Tehran on Saturday in an address to the 
International Forum for Wetlands, which is being held to commemorate the 40th 
anniversary of the ratification of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. 

According to the official website of the secretariat for the Ramsar Convention 
on Wetlands, the Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, called the 
Ramsar Convention, is an intergovernmental treaty that provides the framework 
for national action and international cooperation for the conservation and wise 
use of wetlands and their resources.  

The convention was developed and adopted by participating nations at a meeting 
in the Iranian city of Ramsar on February 2, 1971, and came into force on 
December 21, 1975. 

Ahmadinejad said that three factors are contributing to the destruction of the 
environment of the entire world. 

These factors are lack of knowledge about environmental issues, lack of 
appropriate and binding environmental regulations to prevent encroachment on 
natural resources, and most importantly, the projects and plans implemented by 
the capitalist world, he stated. 

"Many capitalists have amassed fortunes through selling nature and (trading in) 
people's health. If the industries in certain countries decide to meet 
environmental standards, the continuation of their activities will become 
economically unjustifiable," he said. 

"The greedy attitude of capitalism lays the foundation for overstepping all 
boundaries to capture all the Earth's resources," he noted. 

He went on to say that if countries want to restore the balance of the 
ecosystem, they should take a number of measures. 

First of all, governments should try to increase public awareness about 
environmental destruction and its negative impact on human life, and secondly, 
the necessary regulations appropriate for various parts of the world should be 
introduced and the industrial infrastructure should be reformed, he said. 

Ahmadinejad added that the third solution is to replace the capitalist system 
with Islamic ideology, which attaches great importance to respecting and 
safeguarding the environment. 

The president also said that the Iranian government fully supports every effort 
and measure for the protection of the environment. 

In conclusion, Ahmadinejad expressed hope that during the forum, the 
participating countries would be able to formulate new regulations to curb 
environmental destruction, saying, "The siege of those (countries and people) 
that destroy the environment should become tighter." 

On the sidelines of the forum, Ahmadinejad unveiled a special stamp 
commemorating the International Forum for Wetlands. 

A number of ministers, deputy ministers, ambassadors, and senior officials of 
foreign environmental protection organizations from 50 countries attended the 
International Forum for Wetlands. 

The second and last session of the forum will be held in Ramsar later today.
