It reflects a prevailing myth that production technology is no more amenable to human judgment or social interests than the laws of thermodynamics, atomic structure or biological inheritance.

What is needed now is a transformation of the major systems of production more profound than even the sweeping post-World War II changes in production technology.

The real abhorrent consequence of the invention of atomic bombs is the fact that we still have them and they're spreading.

If you ask what you are going to do about global warming, the only rational answer is to change the way in which we do transportation, energy production, agriculture and a good deal of manufacturing. The problem originates in human activity in the form of the production of goods.

The age of innocent faith in science and technology may be over.

In this house, we obey the laws of thermodynamics!
