The
Future of Life - Interview with E.O. Wilson (CBC
Radio)
"We're going to lose a lot
of biodiversity. We're going to damage this planet
still more than it has been. We're going to create
serious problems for ourselves. But that aside,
we can turn it around. And the way to look at
I think is in terms of a bottleneck that runs
through the 21st century.", E.O. Wilson |

The
Bottleneck, by Edward O. Wilson (Scientific American,
excerpt from Edward O. Wilson's book, "The
Future of Life")
- "For every
person in the world to reach present U.S. levels
of consumption with existing technology would
require four more planet Earths."
- "The constraints of the biosphere are fixed.
The bottleneck through which we are passing is
real. It should be obvious to anyone not in a
euphoric delirium that whatever humanity does
or does not do, Earth's capacity to support our
species is approaching the limit." |
