  • 我看了兩遍,而且不斷借給人看.我們現時見到不少有古怪脾氣的老人家.你細心看著他/她們,他/她們可能就是有一段刻骨銘心的經歷.我們覺得他們古怪,只是我們不去好好了解歷史.

The Empty Tank: Oil, Gas, Hot Air, and the Coming Global Financial Catastrophe By Jeremy Leggett
  • 我們應如何活下去

    十年以來,全球變暖已經成為主流傳媒及一般市民的生活話題.現在看起來好像是理所當然。但十年前,這議題只在很少專家,以及部份關心環境的人士中流傳。其中Jeremy Leggett可以說是使這問題得到更多人注視的重要旗手.華盛頓郵報曾說,他是把這問題推到國際議題的重要人物之一。

    這位前半生曾為石油公司尋找新油田的地質專家,一天突然發覺,人類再是這樣開採石油不是辦法。於是他跑去綠色和平工作,在國際會議倡導訂立國際條約。他在去年的一本新書 The Empty Tank 帶出了我們這個以石油為主的世界政經結構,除了引來地球暖化外,這個結構是否可以維持下去,也是一大疑問。現時全球每年消耗290億 ... (continue)

    十年以來,全球變暖已經成為主流傳媒及一般市民的生活話題.現在看起來好像是理所當然。但十年前,這議題只在很少專家,以及部份關心環境的人士中流傳。其中Jeremy Leggett可以說是使這問題得到更多人注視的重要旗手.華盛頓郵報曾說,他是把這問題推到國際議題的重要人物之一。

    這位前半生曾為石油公司尋找新油田的地質專家,一天突然發覺,人類再是這樣開採石油不是辦法。於是他跑去綠色和平工作,在國際會議倡導訂立國際條約。他在去年的一本新書 The Empty Tank 帶出了我們這個以石油為主的世界政經結構,除了引來地球暖化外,這個結構是否可以維持下去,也是一大疑問。現時全球每年消耗290億桶石油,而美國政府估計,到 2025 年,每年就要用掉 430 億桶石油。以現時己發現的存量,以及一些將可開採的存量,都不能滿足這需求。所以,他回到一個老問題,就是所謂的石油頂峰(peak oil)到底何時出現.石油頂峰意思就是,我們地球的石油存量,到底在那時會到頂峰,然後跟著會慢慢下降.樂觀如美國會說是 2030年,但不少人則說 2005年己見頂峰。

    但更重要的是,我們地球到底能否承擔這樣的消耗石油而所排出的溫室氣體,以及因而帶來的氣候變化及經濟捐失,例如佔全球經濟約百分之十的保險業,就會因年年的天災賠償而紛紛倒閉;更莫論因氣候轉變帶來的農產品失收,以及冰川溶化等問題。

    今天全球的政經問題,以致不少地區衝突,都是圍繞著這個以石油為主的能源經濟。當不少國家都在想如何減排溫室氣體時,我們的政府還以每晚把城市照得幻彩通明而引以為榮。不用多久,我們的下一代就會回來質問,為何我們會這麼自私短視,一手把他們的未來消耗掉!

Eternal Curse on the Reader of These Pages By Puig Manuel, Manuel Puig
  • 1 person find this helpful

    看這書時,可能己是二十年前了.初時看得很困難,因為完全是雙人對白,而且是不知道誰跟誰在談.但這也是引人入性之處.
    第一次讓我覺得,文字還有很多可能性.

Film as Subversive Art By Amos Vogel
  • 沒有對Vogel作系統的研究,但看資料,他是前衛電影的策展大師.看一些紀錄片,他家裡的電影資料,本身就是一個電影圖書館.
    這書令你知道,電影與社會解放的關係.看電影,從來都是一種社會實踐.
