News flash! We exceeded earth’s carrying capacity 80 years ago!
Anson covers not only the natural world, but shows where the Arab world suffers 30 percent unemployment today with 258 million people on its way to 439 million by 2030. Can you imagine the political, educational and emotional chaos of such numbers? If we see terrorists being developed today by the “X” generation in the Middle East, can you imagine when their population nearly doubles in 25 years? Anson portends third world poor streaming into first world countries for a better life. That occurs in Europe and the United States today.
Near the end of the book, Anson answers questions that average citizens might ask. He answers every excuse and every ‘feel good’ question promoted by TV, radio and print media. You’ll gain an education beyond your wildest thoughts.
What can we do for our planet? Anson said, “Over the next three decades: governments must immediately and aggressively plan, fund and implement a conservative roadmap for the future. Unless you think that we need to add 600,000 people every three days to the planet, it’s time to get real and get on with population stabilization. Next, publishers and educators must promote environmental sciences as prerequisites to graduation. We must increase our educated and active citizens to work toward a common goal of planetary sustainability. Next, presidents and world leaders must read “Wecskaop” and other books to familiarize themselves with what humanity faces. Then, initiate action at the highest levels. Religious leaders worldwide must come to grips with antiquated ‘unlimited births’ paradigms before humanity suffers unlimited deaths.
In the end, print and broadcast journalists must write and produce stories on what humanity faces both good and bad.
Wasn’t it the comics Laurel and Hardy who said, “This is a fine mess we’ve gotten ourselves into.”
“Wecskaop: What Every Citizens Should Know About Our Planet” can be found at www.amazon.com ; www.barnesandnoble.com or by calling Arman Publishing at Ph. 386 673 5576. ISBN 0-933078-18-8. $22.95
What are the consequences for humanity and the natural world if “Wecskaop” should happen to be in error? “If we heed its cautions,” Anson said, “we will slow our rate of growth, educate all citizens on our planet, ensure that vast regions of earth’s biomes are set aside and protected from roads and human intrusion, and we will expend our treasure and/or efforts to make life, health care, education, cities and opportunities better for populations existing today---instead of frantically keeping up with an avalanche of infrastructure and social needs generated by an additional billion people followed by another and another in the decades to come.”
Eleanor Roosevelt agrees!
