| Résumé : |
Historically, the recognition by humans of their impact upon the earth has consistently lagged behind the magnitude of the damage they have imposed, thus seriously weakening efforts to control this damage. Even today, technological optimists and others ignore the mounting evidence of global environmental degradation until it intrudes more inescapably upon their personal welfare. Even some serious students draw comfort from the arguments that:
• GDP figures are increasing throughout much of the world.
• Life expectancies are increasing in many nations.
• Evidence of greenhouse warming is ambiguous.
• Some claims of environmental damage have been exaggerated.
• Previous predictions of environmental catastrophe have not been borne out. |
