Это вероятно производит меньше впечатлений, чем войны, землетрясения и наводнения, но это потенциально одна из самых больших опасностей для человеческой жизни на земле. Если существующие тенденции продолжатся в течение следующих нескольких десятилетий, то наша планета станет непригодной для жилья.

Перенаселенность, загрязнение и потребление энергии создали такие проблемы всей планеты как массивная вырубка леса, истощение озона, кислотные дожди и глобальное потепление, которое, как полагают, вызвано парниковым эффектом.

Моря в опасности. Они переполнены ядом: промышленные и ядерные отходы, химические удобрения и пестициды. Средиземное море уже почти мертво, Северное море следует за ним. Аральское море на грани исчезновения. Если ничего с этим не делать, то однажды ничто не будет в состоянии жить в морях. Каждые десять минут один вид животного, птицы или насекомого вымирает навсегда. Если ничего с этим не делать, то один миллион разновидностей, которые живы сегодня, вымрет через двадцать лет.

Воздушное население очень серьезная проблема. В Каире, только вдыхать воздух уже опасно для жизни это эквивалентно выкуриванию двух пачек сигарет в день. То же самое происходит в Мехико и в 600 городах бывшего Советского Союза.
