An Oregon-based think-tank, the Post Carbon Institute (PCI) explores numerous methods to help produce a world that is more ecologically and economically secure. For the past 15 years, the organization has developed a broad spectrum of programs and resources to further this mission.
Among the PCI’s recent publications, 2017’s “There’s No App for That: Technology and Morality in the Age of Climate Change, Overpopulation, and Biodiversity Loss” presents a highly critical view of the widely-held belief that technology holds the answer to overpopulation, climate change, and the other major global problems of today. The author of the book, Richard Heinberg, has written widely on ongoing crises in the fields of energy consumption and environmental sustainability.
