    And lawyers required laws.

    First laws had to be passed protecting the environment. Then lawyers (and government agencies like the EPA) could go to court and enforce the laws.

    And we got those laws passed because enough people advocated for them loudly enough and persuasively enough that government listened.

    In other words: talking to people worked.
