James Lovelock Quotes
Let's make hay while it lasts. Life does more than adapt to the Earth. It changes the Earth to its own purposes. NASA will send up a big sun shade that will be in orbit between the earth and sun and deflect 2 or 3 percent of the sunshine back into space. It would be cheaper than the international space station. Nature favors those organisms which leave the environment in better shape for their progeny to survive. One pound of uranium is worth about 3 million pounds worth of coal or oil. Sadly, it's much easier to create a desert than a forest. Science always uses metaphor. The oil companies regard nuclear power as their rival, who will reduce their profits, so they put out a lot of disinformation about nuclear power. There aren't just bad people that commit genocide; we are all capable of it. It's our evolutionary history. There is little evidence that our individual intelligence has improved through recorded history. This programme to stop nuclear by 2020 is just crazy. If there were a nuclear war, and humanity were wiped out, the Earth would breathe a sigh of relief. We'd never have got a chance to go outside and look at the earth if it hadn't been for space exploration and NASA. You mustn't take what I say as gospel because no one can second-guess the future. You never know with politicians what they are really saying. And I don't say that in a negative way-they have an appalling job.
