Será o sistema terrestre vulnerável às perturbações trazidas pela actividade humana? Será o planeta ainda habitável nos decénios e séculos futuros? Qual o impacte do homem sobre o destino da natureza? Devemos estar pessimistas ou optimistas acerca do futuro do nosso planeta e portanto, do futuro da humanidade? Fundamentado numa rigorosa análise científica e longe de qualquer ideologia, este livro tem por objectivo dar um sereno esclarecimento a este debate, permitindo o afinar da visão que o Homem deve ter sobre o mundo em que habita.
