History</a> by LeGov </div><p class=""><span style="font-size: large; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;" class="">Imagine the human habitat in which we all live
changing so rapidly that life as we know it is extinguished.
Temperatures that are getting hotter than ever, decades long
droughts, catastrophic fires, melting polar ice, rising sea
levels, and unprecedented winter storms are expected to
radically limit food production and availability of potable
water. </span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: large; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;" class="">In this, the first of a series on near term
extinction of the human species, we visit with Dr. Guy R.
McPherson, Professor Emeritus of Natural Resources, Ecology and
Evolutionary Biology at the University of Arizona. Professor
McPherson is co-author with Carolyn Baker of “Extinction
Dialogs: How to Live With Death in Mind.” Together they
present what appears to be overwhelming scientific evidence that
our environment is headed for swift apocalyptic collapse. Not
only is this extinction likely, it is occurring every day. “How
to live with death in mind” is the goal: Living with urgency is
the practice. </span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: large; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;" class="">The point from which average <a title="National Climactic Data Center" href="https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/201507" target="_blank" class=""><span style="color: #0000ff;" class="">global
temperature</span></a> rise</span><span style="font-size: large; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;" class=""> is
measured dates back to 1750, the beginning of the industrial
revolution–the time at which the ever increasing use of fossil
fuels began. Since 1750, the planet has warmed by more than 1
degree centigrade. McPherson’s book “Extinction Dialogs: How
to Live With Death in Mind,” explains how this small global rise
in temperature is leading to a large scale mass extinction on
the planet.</span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: large; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;" class="">When Guy McPherson and I visited by phone on
September 14, 2015, while he was traveling near New York, we
began our conversation when I asked him to describe the
indicators that reveal we’re in an era of unstoppable climate
change.</span></p><p class=""><span style="font-size: large; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;" class="">Click <a title="Guy McPherson" href="http://www.radio4all.net/files/curious@radiocurious.org/1197-1-Mcpherson-P1_9-15-2015_CA.mp3" class=""><span style="color: #0000ff;" class="">http://www.radiocurious.org/2015/09/15/mcpherson-guy-ph-d-near-term-human-extinction-part-one/</span></a>
