https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/jul/27/james-lovelock-creator-of-ga “My main reason for not relaxing into contented retirement is that like most of you I am deeply concerned about the probability of massively harmful climate change and the need to do something about it now,” Lovelock said. His Gaia theory was ridiculed when he first proposed it, by many who believed it was “new age nonsense”. It now makes up the basis of much of climate science. He was also controversial among his fellow environmental scientists and campaigners because he advocated for nuclear energy. Now, many agree with his view. Another notable invention by Lovelock was a device that detected CFCs, which are damaging to the ozone layer. [Post edited 27 Jul 2022 20:42]
