God's Last Offer

Absolutely terrific! A highly readable and well-documented account of the dire future we face if changes aren't made. Ayres covers all the major environmental issues, especially the underlying core problem of overpopulation. And he explains how "information fragmentation" prevents us from knowing how serious the problems really are. Anyone even mildly interested in what humans are doing to the planet should read this book!

Profound information with personal solutions

I was impressed with the compilation of the massive amounts of information about the environment put in a way that creates an illumination of the actual problem that exists on earth. More impressively, it gives practical solutions that each of us personally can work to do in our lives.

The tide turns! A must read for the "naysayer"!

Ayers is brilliant! I could not put the book down! In his characteristic style (from "Worldwatch") Ayers paints a clear picture of the dangerous place we are headed (if not already there) -a world that will require a collective concentrated focus on mitigation of the effects of the four megaphenomena (see above), and a reversal of those trends, if our species is to survive. This book is not for the light-hearted. If you have the slightest shade of "green" in your soul, this book will give you a paradigm shift that will change your life. If you don't, you will.

A disturbing wake-up call to a culture in denial.

This book is not another fun summer read. It is, rather, more like a sledgehammer assault on our collective complacency and cultual denial.By summarizing out current environmental malaise by means of the four easily understood "spikes", Ayers makes clear (at least to this reviewer)the time to wake up from our "business as usual" slumbers is now. He convinced me of his diagnosis. I was a little less convinced that there was much any one person could do about it. I was looking at our tired old earth a little differently after this one.
