Description
|
|
|
|
The dinosaurs were destroyed by an extinction event, and another such catastrophe currently threatens the world, posits Michael Novacek; this time we are the cause, due to our unchecked contributions to pollution, global warming, and habitat loss. Novacek contends that paleontologists, in conjunction with other scientists, may be able to identify the subtler warning signs of global decay so that we can all begin to tackle our earth’s problems.
