  2. 2. Living Within Limits

    Ecology, Economics, and Population Taboos

    A clear-eyed examination of the ecological and social realities of a finite planet, arguing that unchecked population and consumption inevitably strain carrying capacity. It analyzes commons dilemmas, the allure and danger of the growth imperative, and the ethical trade-offs of “lifeboat” scenarios to show why freedom must be balanced by responsibility and institutional constraints. The book urges embracing explicit limits, “mutual coercion” for the common good, and cultural shifts that confront taboos around reproduction and consumption to achieve long-term sustainability.

  3. 3. Filters Against Folly

    How to Survive Despite Economists, Ecologists, and the Merely Eloquent

    A concise guide to critical thinking about complex environmental and social issues, it presents three practical filters—literacy to spot verbal manipulation, numeracy to interpret data and scale, and ecolacy to understand systems, limits, and unintended consequences. Using these tools, it urges readers to scrutinize expert claims, recognize carrying capacity and trade-offs, and avoid being misled by persuasive rhetoric or oversimplified solutions.
