¿Cómo lo traducirían en este contexto? Gracias.

At the beginning of the 1970s the time had become evidently ripe for this question. Had the same book with the same message appeared 20 years earlier, it probably would not have received much attention. However, by 1972 very many people already had their own experience, a personal impression of the overburdening of nature by human civilization: polluted waters and air, mountains of waste growing unchecked, ***traffic breakdowns***; large-scale erosion, overbuilding of the entire landscape, and similar phenomena demonstrated to the senses that the self-healing price of nature obviously could no longer equal this concentrated attack.
