The book outset that the elements of human life is the survival of all the elements: air, water, fire and earth. Therefore, all species are our relatives evolution, humans are not the highest of all things, "manager", but with the whole of life "coexist" on top of the earth. "Sacred balance" a powerful and moving book, made specific recommendations, the new updated version of a more scientific view of the booming decades (eg: gene technology, brain science, etc.) for people to bring the pros and cons, while also provides warming and human social change to the latest statistics, endless attempts at human desire to bring a serious impact on the environment, let us re-find their own position remaining balance in the cosmic order, and thus the pursuit of true ecological sustainability, full, righteous lifestyle.

If the endless human desire, constantly stressed the development, use of excessive consumption of resources will always be "No Man." Modern life has been very good, and most people clothed. Not a lack of resources, but uneven, resulting in some of the Earth's people hungry. remaining balance How to make rich people, control point, do not continue to waste and sustainable exploitation of resources to retain more people remaining balance in need and give to other species, so that things remaining balance can calm survive. "The Sacred Balance" gives us a lot of information, remaining balance so that we are interdependent, and from the restraint began to work together to find happiness!
Preface Introduction to revision when the revised edition remaining balance book published a decade ago, I attempted to convince the world recognize the real bottom line of human needs. The year was 1988, when the rest of the world have to recognize remaining balance that they are most concerned about the environmental issues. In response to this trend concerns remaining balance of the environment, George Bush (George HW Bush) in the U.S. presidential election has been promised, once elected, to when a "green president." Helpless after he took office, his administration soon people understand the performance, remaining balance campaign remaining balance tricks campaign promises but only just. In the same year, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher (Margaret Thatcher) publicly announced on television that she was a green elements, while the newly appointed Prime Minister of Canada Brian Mulroney (Brian Mulroney) the appointment of his team's most dazzling political talents Lu Xi'an Buxia He (Lucien Bouchard) served as environment minister to show his commitment to environmental concerns. I was working for the Canadian National Radio planning to shoot 'survival at stake, "(It's remaining balance a Matter of Survival) a total of five episodes of the series, shortly after taking office in 布夏赫, I went to interview him. When I asked what is the most significant environmental issues currently facing Canada, he immediately replied: "global warming." "How serious is it? 'I asked. "This is a threat to the survival of our species," he replied, and called for action to be taken seriously reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Also in 1988, Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney invited respected politician Stephen Lewis (Stephen Lewis) chaired the workshop atmosphere of a meeting held in Toronto. At that time, climate scientists on global warming was a panic situation, after the end of the seminar, they issued a press release announcing the threat of global warming to human survival "after a nuclear war", and called for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and hope within remaining balance 15 years to reduce emissions to insure 1988's. remaining balance It was well received by the public attention, the Environment Minister announced that global warming endangers human survival, scientists called for the world to take action, setting out the greenhouse gas reduction targets. If we look at these warnings seriously and take immediate action corresponds now bound emissions far below the target set by the Kyoto Protocol, and later (in the Second 2012, reaching below the emissions of 九九 years five-six percentage remaining balance points), the problem of climate change will not become so difficult and complicated. Happens when we just can not put these warnings remaining balance seriously. Soon after, Worldwatch Research Centre (Worldwatch Institute) will 一 九九 years as "transition decade" (Turnaround Decade), expressed remaining balance in this decade, remaining balance from the self-destruction of mankind must direction, can be transferred to a permanent continued development of the road. Nevertheless, environmental issues is gradually disappearing in the polls. Media attention to two thousand points from the Dow Jones industrial average soared to a million points, the Internet company's share price bubbles (dot-com bubble), the number of enterprises in financial scandals, such as Enron (Enro), World Communications (WorldCom) and Tyco (Tyco), as well as the millennium bug (Y2K) crisis. Today, an instant remaining balance after nearly two decades, remaining balance the world renewed concern for environmental issues. Over the years, I have always said you want to take the bus across Canada, the dialogue with the public, this is my boast rally from the early twentieth century the famous American 肖托 (Chautauqua Forum) remaining balance to get inspiration. When in 2006, the staff of the David Suzuki Foundation told me that according to opinion polls show that environmental issues in the issues of concern to Canadians has risen to second place, remaining balance behind health care. Katrina hurricane in the United remaining balance States suffered and suffered long-term remaining balance drought in Australia, and its people are increasingly aware of climate change, and began to focus on this issue. In my opinion, both health and the environment are inseparable, and if the planet we live unhealthy, how could enjoy a healthy life. So our team decided to open the shuttle bus across Canada to share our ideas, listen to public opinion, but also for the "If you are a current prime minister, would do anything for the environment?" This problem, seek public views. Over the years, the media continued to report the super storm raging wildfire, flood disaster, as well as pine beetle epidemic and other news, these events are not only consistent with the predictions of climate scientists, but also raise awareness of the public, should be aware of what went wrong. Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore (Al Gore) produced the film "An Inconvenient Truth" (An Inconvenient Truth) like a saturated solution into the seed crystals precipitate out to people remaining balance concerned about global warming and public awareness. February 2007, I launched my bus trip from St. John's Newfoundland, the climate and the environment have risen sharply remaining balance as a Canadian citizen top of the agenda of most concern. Australian Prime Minister John Howard (John Howard) was forced to admit the fact of climate change, while in the United States, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and vigorously remaining balance promote the reduction of greenhouse gases due to the accident became the darling of the environmental movement propaganda poster. remaining balance When I arrived in Victoria, British Columbia on February 28, and two days later to Ottawa, and 30,000 people have spoken, which has 600 people agree with us shooting the film they are For "If you are a prime minister, what will be done for the environment?" expressed their views on this issue. All signs show the public want to take action against a major environmental problem and are willing to a more secure future to make the necessary sacrifices. According to the evidence accumulated so far shows that the scale of climate change coverage is great. However, since we have not set emission caps, and actively expand the carbon reduction action, leading to the current challenges and a carbon reduction, compared to twenty years ago, has become more difficult and expensive. Although the evidence is clear that opposition to significantly reduce emissions, noise still exists, mainly due to the opponents argue that the cost of these operations is too high, thus reducing jobs and lead to economic collapse. At the moment, we need a common real bottom line than in the past, the primary goal is to promote the book to reach this consensus. Ten years after the release of the first edition of the book, there are many new scientific discoveries can strengthen and expand our original basic premise, say new DNA sequencing technology operations and expose the path of human origins and migration to the rest of the world. The book will discuss these important remaining balance new discovery, as well as many other studies on brain development and plasticity, but also introduces fine role in shaping our growth hormone during play. In addition, we will also explore the phenomenon of the many social changes, such as the increasingly strong consumerism, urbanization and over-protection of children, making remaining balance them far less than the time to explore the nature of their parents and grandparents, these changes will not only impact on the environment, will also affect the relationship between people remaining balance and the environment. In addition, the book also added a lot of new information about the atmosphere and climate remaining balance change. We will embark on a journey time and space, back to the life of the first to explore this tiny blue-green algae in the development of micro-organisms capture solar energy features, is how to transform our planet. Long down, changing the atmosphere, and finally be able to maintain the oxygen-rich conditions to nourish all things; Today, our atmosphere began to change again. remaining balance Scientists remaining balance have discovered that atmospheric pollutants from area sources can be thousands of miles away "jump" to. The new data clearly shows that any movement of the Amazon rainforest will affect the climate and weather patterns around the world. Of course, the most pressing environmental problem is due to human activity increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases. Revised edition of the book most updated content, say the increase has been made the Human Genome Project (Human Genome Project), the status of the Canadian Lake Erie and the Aral Sea, and the latest data of the Earth's biodiversity. From the north and south poles, oceans, and even the crust of life survey, we can see the diversity of human life on the planet known to very few. The researchers found that almost every week a new species, abundant life forms in certain areas of interaction with and varied, almost to the point of stunning, just a lot of moss, you can nurture two hundred eighty thousand individual . Conducting biological research, we explore remaining balance the complex links, completely beyond the imagination of a few decades ago whether the relationship between salmon and trees, lush forests and forest fires are connected, or clay, and life itself link. The most interesting case of scientific knowledge to "love" chemicals. When love and be loved, the body goes through a lot of chemical changes. At present, a lot of evidence to suggest that humans and animals in the absence of emotional nourishment and touch environment, can not be successfully thrive. New research also shows that humans might like naturally want to seek spiritual beliefs, and innate tendency remaining balance to believe that there is a distinction between body and soul. Since the first edition of this book only has not changed: we still advocate that humans can not destroy the basic elements needed to sustain life, lived a rich useful life. Since I 一九 六 join the conservation movement's remaining balance regional clearcut, build dams and chemical pollution and other issues has been an important topic of debate, a variety of divergent views are always diametrically opposed to each other. Each camp is demonizing the opponent, so regardless of the outcome, there will always be defeated party. In every conflict, hostility their respective support different beliefs and values. In such a situation, we are forced to the spotted owl and loggers, work and parks, the protection remaining balance of the environment or fight to make a choice between remaining balance the economy. But if we really want to do something for our children and grandchildren, as they save a better future, who can not afford to lose us. In these conflicts, I have tried to get off
