If We Were Redesigning Around People Instead

People Have Not Made The Connection That The More Of Us There Are, The More Greenhouse Gases Go Into The Atmosphere. The Chinese Have. They, Unlike Us, Have A Population Policy. The Right Wingers Just Don't Understand That The Country They're In Is Probably The Most Overpopulated In The World, The One Doing Most Of The Destruction, And The One With Horrendously Bad Leadership.

Here's The Scientific Community Saying, Fundamentally, "if We Don't Change Our Ways, We're Screwed." And They Got No Attention At All. Even Though The Union Of Concerned Scientists Put Out This Statement Which Was Signed By More Than Half Of All The Nobel Laureates In Science And Another 1,500 Distinguished Scientists.

Overall, The Population Bomb Was Probably Too Optimistic. I Was Writing About Climate Change - Anne And I Actually Wrote The Book. We Discussed Whether Or Not You'd Have To Take A Gondola To The Empire State Building, And That Sort Of Thing, But We Didn't Know At The Time Whether The Climate Change Would Be In The Direction Of Heating Or Cooling. We Just Didn't Know Enough About It.

The National Academy Of Sciences Would Be Unable To Give A Unanimous Decision If Asked Whether The Sun Would Rise Tomorrow.

To Err Is Human, But To Really Foul Things Up You Need A Computer.
