Review of Barry Commoner’s “Making Peace with the Planet”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper reviewing Barry Commoner’s text “Making Peace with the Planet” (1990, 1992). Barry Commoner’s text “Making Peace with the Planet” stresses the arguments surrounding the slow destruction of the physical and environmental aspects of the planet based on continued pollutants being released into the system. While Earth Day 1970 provided the population with a promise to reduce harmful emissions into the atmosphere by 90 percent by 1977; the emissions were only reduced by 19 percent by that time and have changed little since. In his analysis, Commoner also provides useful technological alternatives to industries which especially produce high pollutants such as electric generation by the burning of fossil fuels and the agricultural use of chemical pesticides. Solar energy in decentralized co-generating stations and organic large scale farming are just two of the alternatives he proposes. In his text, Commoner also discusses the political barriers which must be overcome, which are currently based on cost-benefit analyses for short term policies and private enterprise, in order to provide a more socially responsible and rational approach to protection of the global environment for present and future generations.
