The Top Five Environmental Disasters that Didn't Happen
For this year's Earth Day celebration, Reason.tv is proud to
present "The Top Five Environmental Disasters that Didn't Happen."
The environmental movement began in 1962 when Rachel Carson
published her best-selling book Silent Spring. And ever
since, chicken littles have warned us about imminent environmental
disasters that ultimately didn't happen.
We all worried needlessly about acid rain, expanding deserts and
global cooling, but these failed predictions weren't quite dire
enough to make our list. To find out which prophecies of doom
did make our list, you'll need to watch Reason.tv's "Top
Five Environmental Disasters that Didn't Happen."
Approximately 7 minutes.
Produced by Feine, Manning, Jensen, Bragg, Swain, Epstein and
Gillespie. Narrated by Melissa Palmer. Special thanks to Ron Bailey
and Julian Morris.
