“Sci-Fi is the genre that explored both possibilities: the end of our existential crisis and the end of our existence. My novel, The 5th Wave, explores the latter scenario, because, frankly, I believe it represents the likeliest outcome of an extraterrestrial encounter. In short, if they're out there, we better hope they never find us.” IfsBelieveEndsI BelieveExistenceNovelPossibilityCrisisWaveGenreOutcomesEncountersLatterSci FiExistentialScenariosExistential CrisisExtraterrestrial5th Wave Author:Rick Yancey
“Perhaps one of the most meaningful ways to sense the impact of the environmental crisis is to confront the question which is always asked about Lake Erie: how can we restore it? I believe the only valid answer is that no one knows. For it should be clear that even if overnight all of the pollutants now pouring into Lake Erie were stopped, there would still remain the problem of the accumulated mass of pollutants in the lake bottom.” IfsKnowsWayShouldBelieveStillsProblemI BelieveWaterAnswersClearMassCrisisImpactEnvironmentalBottomMeaningfulLakesPouringMost MeaningfulEnvironmental CrisisLake Erie Author:Barry Commoner
