Description: The Vanishing Face of Gaia: A Final Warning by James Lovelock Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A preeminent environmental scientist contends that it's too late to reverse global warming—and argues that mankind must prepare to adapt to a very hot future. Publisher Description Celebrities drive hybrids, Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize, and supermarkets carry no end of so-called "green" products. And yet the environmental crisis is only getting worse. In "The Vanishing Face of Gaia," the eminent scientist James Lovelock argues that the earth is lurching ever closer to a permanent "hot state" - and much more quickly than most specialists think. There is nothing humans can do to reverse the process; the planet is simply too overpopulated to halt its own destruction by greenhouse gases.In order to survive, mankind must start preparing now for life on a radically changed planet. The meliorist approach outlined in the Kyoto Treaty must be abandoned in favor of nuclear energy and aggressive agricultural development on the small areas of earth that will remain arable.A reluctant jeremiad from one of the environmental movement's elder statesmen, "The Vanishing Face of Gaia" offers an essential wake-up call for the human race.
