The Only Alternative - Hassan Rasheed - Bog

A comparison between Earth's cyclical and balanced processes before and after the introduction of humans is made. An analysis of the attempts of the civilized to understand Nature and their eventual turning away from it to construct a reality of their own. This alternate reality is examined through economics, culture, and scientific lenses and their effects on the Earth and its inhabitants.
The future is contemplated for humanity and the planet in light of current climatic and other worldwide events such as global warming and depletion of water resources to name just two of many. "The Only Alternative" pleads for a change in our attitude toward Nature because it is the final authority on how things work on our planet. "The Only Alternative" to our current way of life is introduced in five action steps achievable in our lifetime.
