Michael & Joyce Heusemann: Techno-Fix: Why Technology Won't Save Us or the Environment (book/video)
This is a lecture by Dr. Michael Huesemann based on the book he co-authored with his wife Joyce Huesemann, "Techno-Fix: Why Technology Won't Save Us or the Environment."
Huesemann addresses three questions:
- Can technology solve major environmental and social problems? What are the limitations of tech?
- Why do most people believe in technological progress and uncritically accept any technology?
- Are there simple and effective low-tech solutions, and what can we do?
His answers defy much of the conventional wisdom surrounding technology.
