The concept "precautionary principle" is generally considered to have arisen in English from a translation of the German term Vorsorgeprinzip in the 1970s in response to forest degradation and sea pollution. (Wikipedia)

Vorsorgeprinzip ... Greenalot (SJS): We, what I often call "Generation Green", started talking about vorsorgeprinzip in the 70s when we were doing what were called "teach-ins" for peace back then. The first 'Earth Day' we organized was a 'teach-in' and we talked about vorsorgeprinzip and, in English, we translated this principle into a broader 'environmental protection' whole earth movement. Today, we call vorsorgeprinzip a "Precautionary Principle". In business, it's in the risk management field of thought and practice. In green politics it's about being careful as we look at the consequences of our lives, our 'externalities'. Pollution of the atmosphere's 'thin blue layer' is one example, destruction of biodiversity, extinction of species, eradication of life on earth is another. It is time for an accounting, an "environmental full-cost accounting". #GreenPolicy360 #StrategicDemands
