I have no direct descendants so I often concern myself with the fate of our entire species. This book is a great introduction into SOME of the EXISTENTIAL threats to our species and to the entire EARTH. The purpose is not to keep you up at night but to inform you about some things that TRUELY MATTER to our decedents on 50-100 year (2-5 generations) time scale. It is ABSOLUTELY FALSE that there is NOTHING we can do about these matters. In small ways we can all make choices which either promote or demote the chances of our species surviving for the long run. By living CONSCIOUSLY and making WISE CHOICES we can all do our part to promote a more positive future. "Ignorance is bliss" is about as sound advice as having another drink after you are already drunk. NO good decisions are likely to result. KNOWLEDGE is POWER (The Power to do GOOD). geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Bolstered by unassailable science and delivered in eloquent style, Our Final Hour's provocative argument that humanity has a mere 5050 chance of surviving the next century has struck a chord with readers, reviewers, and opinion-makers everywhere. Rees's vision of our immediate future is both a work of stunning scientific originality and a humanistic clarion call on behalf of the future of life. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
