Reply #1: Finally some reality. The idea that population can affect the planet [View All]

is basic. I do not worry so much about this portion of the equation because one pandemic can fix the population and most likely will. What upsets me is the way every economist I know leaves the two major threats (global warming and oil depletion) out of the picture. I read both Krugman and Reich and even they are dealing with the economic situation as if it is merely about jobs and money. If we are truly serious about fixing this mess we need to take the whole reality into consideration. At the moment the only person I know of who has done that is James Howard Kunstler. Are there any other writers/economist/etc who are looking at the whole picture? My daughter told me to look at the TV program called Jeremiah because it did but she is wrong they are just dealing with a pandemic and its aftermath.

Edited to ask who the Daly is they are referring to is?
