Descripción
Sumario:World-renowned scientist and author Stephen H. Schneider depicts the next one hundred years as a potentially perilous period for climate and life unless we citizens of Earth first recognize and then work to control the unintended global scale experiment we are foisting on ourselves and all other life on Laboratory Earth." The lab" is not built of glass, wires, and tubes, but of insects, soils, air, oceans, birds, trees, and people. While no scientist can claim to hae clairvoyant vision into the twenty-first century, Schneider demonstrates that enough is already known to command our attention.
