Jared Diamond has a skill for taking huge and complicated subjects and distilling them down into easy to understand ideas. He has 2 good books out that try to determine what makes societies prosper or die out. He wrote a good article in the NYT today that is one of the best introductions to sustainability I have read.

Interesting article. Almost makes me feel bad for keeping my car running while at work, keeping all 4 of my TVs on all day, keep all my lights on, making four meals a night and throwing away the extras.... ALMOST.
