| Summary / Abstract (Note) | With ecological and financial crises threatening the world, the authors of this paper undertook a survey of differing views of experts and others in evaluating the severity of the Global Megacrisis and the probability of four alternative scenarii. William E Halal and Michael Marien sketch the scenarii, present preliminary results and conclude with two analyses-one guardedly optimistic, the other decidedly pessimistic. |
