The last chapter was a bit redundant, but overall this book was great. From now on, I cannot allow anyone to lecture me about "recycling" or "environmental stewardship" unless they have read this book. Written by an architect and a chemist. I can tell I am going to love this book, because it seems that it will be reinforcing opinions I already have. From p.12, "The scientific community is usually paid to study problems, not solutions; indeed, finding a solution to the problem under study usually brings an end to funding for research." From p.15, "We see a world of abundance, not limits. In the midst of a great deal of talk about reducing the human ecological footprint, we offer a different vision. What if humans designed products and systems that celebrate an abundance of human creativity, culture, and productivity? That are so intelligent and safe, our species leaves an ecological footprint to delight in, not lament." That last quote, whether the authors know it or not, is a totally faithful application of God's charge to humanity in Genesis 1:28. We are supposed to leave our mark upon the Earth. But it is supposed to be a mark to bless the Earth, not curse it.
