KMO
welcomes Dennis M. Bushnell, chief scientist of the NASA Langley
Research Center, to discuss climate change and ways of combating it
that don't produce Big Brother on steroids. Mr. Bushnell also discusses
the existential risks that could arise from the "simultaneous IT, bio,
nano, quantum, energetics, double exponential tech revolution."
Dennis M. Bushnell's Lifeboat Foundation bio: http://lifeboat.com/ex/bios.dennis.m.bushnell
In our conversation, Dennis Bushnell makes several references to and speaks very highly of a book by Peter D. Ward called Under a Green Sky: Global Warming, the Mass Extinctions of the Past, and What They Can Tell Us About Our Future.
Wow! Someone over on the Peak Oil News & Message Boards transcribed the whole interview. You can find it here:
