Wilderness and Plenty by Dr Frank Fraser Darling 5: The forward look in conservation
An American professor, Paul Ehrlich. attending a conference in London recently, left no doubt that he believed that before AD 2000 civilisation might succumb to what he called ecocatastrophe - the cumulative effect of the misuse of DDT, fossil fuels, and the consequent pollution of air, land, and sea.
At the eleventh hour, so to speak, Dr Fraser Darling looks at what has already been achieved in conservation and forward to the move by the Council of Europe to make 1970 European Conservation Year.
