A rather stimulating book - the author is now 94 years old (he was a sprightly 86 when he wrote this). He has is own iconoclastic view of environmentalism. I read this at the same time as Plan 3.0, which is a much more "traditional" view of climate change and what to do about it. Lovelock seems to have given up on changing policy before the big disaster. He is a proponent of nuclear energy and he detests wind farms. He seems to believe that unless you believe as he does about Gaia, you will never understand anything. Sounds like a religion to me. I guess I'm a Dawkinsian, at heart.
