Paul Ehrlich predicted disaster from overpopulation, but today the challenge is declining fertility, with governments in Asia and Europe seeking ways to boost births and maintain economic and social stability. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/03/29/world/paul-ehrlichs-population-predictions/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #paulehrlich #demographics #populations #humanrace

🌎 Stanford University biologist Paul Ehrlich, died March 13,2026
"In his 2023 memoir, “Life,” Ehrlich expressed deep gratitude for a 70-year career in science. However, he was frustrated over what he saw as the inability of science to penetrate America’s stubbornly unscientific political culture. He was also saddened that the environmental movement was failing to effectively oppose “the forces that pose existential threats to civilization.” Throughout his career as a public scholar, Ehrlich was never afraid to look into the abyss."

#PaulEhrlich: "vast majority of my colleagues think we've had it; that the next few decades will be the end of the kind of civilization we're used to."

I've just run across an interesting observation on risk perseption and evolutionary selection which strikes me as interesting, and seems to have something of a figure-ground relation.
The passage:
The forces of genetic and cultural selection were not creating brains or institutions capable of looking generations ahead; there would have been no selection pressures in that direction. Indeed, quite the opposite, selection probably favoured mechanisms to keep perception of the environmental backgroudn steady so that rapid changes (e.g., leopard approaching) would be obvious. But now slow changes in that background are the most lethal threats.
-- Paul & Anne Ehrlich, "Can the Collapse of Global Civilization be Avoided?", Proceedings of the Royal Society (2012).
(Emphasis added.)
This strikes me as a temporal figure/ground relation, where faster-moving short-term actions dominate attention over much slower-moving risks. (There's also the case of activity that's too fast for preception, such as a hummingbird's wing beats, or many songbird's vocalisations.)
Are there evolutionary structures which do respond to the slower beats? I've thought before that trees don't have brains, but rather forests are brains, operating on timescales we can't readily apprehend.
The human problem of accurate risk perception is its own fascinating / frustrating topic.

A decade ago in 2012, a team with Paul and #AnneEhrlich wrote a most sobering of papers, titled 'Can a collapse of #civilization be avoided?'
Read it here:
https://web.archive.org/web/20210804092039/https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/pdf/10.1098/rspb.2012.2845Its all-encompassing.
The term #endarkening, in relation to loss of #freedom and #democracy and the aggressive forces that will assert themselves for #growth, is compelling.
