Description

Ecology affects the daily lives of everyone on Earth. It is central to our survival and to the preservation of a world worth living in. This updated edition offers a wide range of information to help the reader understand the subject, from the Flood to present-day holes in the sky, from the earthworm to Agribiz and the photobiological reactor, from the vanishing topsoil of the Third World and the starvation diet of much of its population to the conspicuous consumption of the industrialized West and a liberated Eastern Europe anxious to join in. The book presents a disquieting portrait of our beleagured Earth and points to the kinds of sustainable alternatives that might save it.
