“The notion that science will save us is the chimera that allows the present generation to consume all the resources it wants, as if not generations will follow. It is the sedative that allows civilization to march so steadfastly toward environmental catastrophe. It forestalls the real solution, which is will be the in hard, nontechnical work of changing human behavior.”
—Kenneth Brower
