Spaceship Earth Jack Perry

We've been building successful societies aboard Spaceship Earth for many thousands of years. Machu Picchu, Palenque, Troy, the Pyramids and Stonehenge evidence the fleeting success of some of our attempts... However, in the author's lifetime Spaceship Earth's passenger load has exploded from under two to over seven billion. The baggage per passenger, you know the stuff we need for our lifetime cruise, well that is now measured in the hundreds of tons. Yes, rapid advancement in science and technology is making our world into such a small place that all life aboard our spaceship has now become a single existence. Terrestrial plants, animals and man have become a single, giant, interwoven, many component complex. Will the next couple of generations leave our spaceship sprinkled with the termite mound-like remnants of life as we know it or will mankind quickly begin to live within the rigid ecological parameters our little spaceship defines for us? From this viewpoint the author discusses a number of today's current events hoping perhaps that they won't too quickly become tomorrow's history.
