'The limits of human intelligence' - Ugo Bardi

Ugo Bardi -"the limits of human intelligence".
"We’re dealing, obviously, with the limits of human intelligence”.

So said a researcher and Professor in Chemistry, Ugo Bardi, who contributes to The Oil Drum, is a member of the scientific committee of the Association for the Study of Peak Oil and Gas (ASPO) and author of several books, including one on energy and mineral resources (The Limits to Growth Revisited).

In an interview with Adristia he said, “Climate change is a good example: it’s a horrific message to be giving. We are really talking about the possibility of an end to mankind and maybe life on earth. It’s understandable that instead of listening to the message, many people prefer to flee with their hands over their ears while singing “la-la-la!””.
