Reveals the short-sightedness behind conceiving of floods, fires, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, hurricanes as natural disasters. This book argues that such thinking has led to policies that have done the environment more harm than good. It points out ways in which we can better address the environmental problems that humanity faces.
