- Will Man Survive?The Vanishing of a Species? by Peter Gretener is about the future of homo sapiens. Will we survive as a species? Peter Gretener wrote most of the book in the 70s.

- One Cool Letter on LitterI love this letter published in the Irish Times: Madam, – If I were a tourist I would feel extremely uncomfortable eating out in a country which is populated by a people so lacking in (environmental) hygiene that they leave their cities, towns and highways strewn with litter on a scale that is nothing short of astonishing.
