Tue, 26 Aug 2008 12:16:23 -0000

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

discussion has ensued among international-security experts who believe climate-change-related damage to global ecosystems and the resulting competition for natural resources may increasingly serve as triggers for wars and other conflicts in the future.

most possibly destabilizing populations and governments: degradation of freshwater resources, food insecurity, natural disasters and environmental migration.

the number of world regions vulnerable to drought was expected to rise

“Most critical for human survival are water and food, which are sensitive to changing climatic conditions,”

“The associated socio-economic and political stress can undermine the functioning of communities, the effectiveness of institutions, and the stability of societal structures. These degraded conditions could contribute to civil strife, and, worse, armed conflict.”

“Large areas of Africa are suffering from scarcity of food and fresh water resources, making them more vulnerable to conflict.

“Although climate change bears a significant conflict potential, it can also transform the international system toward more cooperation if it is seen as a common threat that requires joint action,”

the seeming conflict between environment and the economy will be best overcome with the recognition that protecting the climate in the best interest of the economy.”

“History has shown how dependent our culture is on a narrow window of climatic conditions for average temperature and precipitation,”

Open the Future: The Earth Will Be Just Fine, Thank You

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 09:55:05 -0000

We sometimes make the conceptual mistake of thinking that the way the Earth's ecosystem is today is the way it will forever be, that we've somehow reached an ecological end-state. But even in an eco-conscious world, or one devoid of humans entirely, natural processes from evolution to geophysical and solar cycles would continue. The Earth's been at this for a long time, literally billions of years; from a planetary perspective, a quadrupling of atmospheric carbon lasting 10,000 years (for example) is little more than a passing blip. The fact of the matter is that, no matter how much greenhouse gas we pump into the atmosphere or how many toxins we dump into the soil and oceans, given enough time the Earth will recover.

But human civilization is far more fragile.
