In response to a
Guardian article, "To
infinity and beyond", by Pat Kane, on what motivates young
people to take an interest in science. |

It is this attitude and approach to science that has got us into the terrible mess we are in, having facilitated the development of an economy and way of life which are causing us to plunder and wreck our planet.
A product of our higher, human nature (awareness of and curiosity about the world and our place in it), science has been hijacked and harnessed by our lower, animal nature to serve its own, perfectly natural from an evolutionary perspective, but on our finite and vulnerable planet, utterly unsustainable purposes.
