Sustaining Life: Biodiversity and Human Health
October 3, 2008
Eric Chivian founder, Center for Health and Global Environment [homepage]
Noel Michele Holbrook professor, biology, Harvard
Eric Chivian and Noel Michele Holbrook discuss why we can no longer see ourselves as separate from the natural world, nor assume that we will be unharmed by its alteration. The Earth's biodiversity, the rich variety of life on our planet, is disappearing at an alarming rate. And while human health depends, to a larger extent than we might imagine, on biodiversity, this essential relationship is rarely addressed.
