Wasted World: How Our Consumption Challenges the Planetby Rob Hengeveld
- LendMe LendMe™ Learn More
All systems produce waste as part of a cycle—bacteria, humans, combustion engines, even one as large and complex as a city. To some extent, this waste can be absorbed, processed, or recycled—though never completely. In Wasted World, Rob Hengeveld reveals how a long history of human consumption has left our world drowning in this waste. This is a compelling and urgent work that traces the related histories of population growth and resource consumption. As Hengeveld explains, human life (and population growth) depends not only on mineral resources but also on energy. People first obtained energy from food and later supplemented this with energy from water, wind, and animals as one source after another fell short of our ever-growing needs. Finally, we turned to fossil energy, which generates atmospheric waste that is the key driver of global climate change. The effects of this climate change are already leading to food shortages and social collapse in some parts of the world. Because all of these problems are interconnected, Hengeveld argues strenuously that measures to counter individual problems cannot work. Instead, we need to tackle their common cause—our staggering population growth. While many scientists agree that population growth is one of the most critical issues pressuring the environment, Hengeveld is unique in his insistence on turning our attention to the waste such growth leaves in its wake and to the increasing demands of our global society. A practical look at the sustainability of our planet from the perspective of a biologist whose expertise is in the abundances and distributions of species, Wasted World presents a fascinating picture of the whole process of using, wasting, and exhausting energy and material resources. And by elucidating the complexity of the causes of our current global state, Hengeveld offers us a way forward.
Editorial Reviews
"In profiling the massive buildup of global waste and its consequent threat to the environment, Hengeveld doesn't mince words here in arguing that the primary culprit behind this crisis is overpopulation. Beginning with an overview of the energy-consumption cycles observed in most natural organisms, where waste products are usually recycled back into the earth, Hengeveld catalogs the obvious evidence that humankind has long passed the point of environmental equilibrium. His core chapters on exhausting and wasting resources highlight the damage done by deforesting, overexploiting fossil fuels, and tainting our freshwater supplies while demonstrating how all of these problems have been triggered by runaway societal expansion."
"Ecologist Rob Hengeveld's Wasted World is a monumental cri de Coeur. . . . In Wasted World, Hengeveld's intellectual compass is firmly aligned with the powerful decades-old environmental rhetoric of thinkers such as environmentalist Donella Meadows (co-author of The Limits to Growth; Universe Books, 1972) and population biologist Paul Ehrlich. Hengeveld argues that we are depleting resources and polluting the environment faster than human survival can bear — literally 'wasting' the planet.To his credit, Hengeveld squanders no space on using resources more efficiently in support of economic growth. He homes in on how the human population already exceeds Earth's capacity."
"The historical coverage is . . . impressive in helping to expose how centuries of human development have landed us here, with society on the brink of collapse. Given the book's title, one would be forgiven for thinking that this work is just about waste: it is, but it is more besides. Rob Hengeveld successfully reveals how population size, resource exploitation and the threat of system collapse are all interrelated issues that humanity must face up to if it is to avert collapse and have a future on planet Earth."
"This is a fresh new way of looking at our core problems on the planet—a different lens to try to understand why we're having such problems and how we might find better paths."
"Rob Hengeveld provides a broad history of humanity's impacts on Earth's life support systems, leading to today's pivotal and dangerous moment. Wasted World is a sobering read that provides us with an understanding of how this urgent situation came to be. It is possible to pull Earth back from the brink—if we act on Hengeveld's message."

Chapter OneTHE NATURE OF LIFE: MAKING WASTE
Feeding adds matter and energy to an organism. Yet, after some time, an organism gets hungry and begins to feed again. Having to feed again means that energy and matter have been used somehow; they are used to sustain the organism's life, and the byproduct is waste expelled from the organism.
In very broad terms, this is what happens to all organisms all the time. Organisms big and small, simple and complex. Plants and animals, bacteria, and molds. Life is a never-ending stream of energy and matter—a stream entering a system as energy-rich food, doing work inside, and leaving it again as energy-poor waste. Actually, this stream has already flowed uninterruptedly for almost four billion years. Before they die and hand over the flame to their off spring, all organisms feed and turn food into waste, which they expel. This continues for generation after generation of organisms. Their waste, and eventually their bodies, become food for yet other organisms. And so on, and so on. Indefinitely. This food can be water or minerals from the soil, plants or animals, or gases from the air. The same perpetual cycle applies to waste: the water vapor we breathe out, the minerals returning to the soil, the oxygen plants release into water or air—or the dead elephant decaying away, over the months returning to the soil and air all its constituents assembled and used over the years. Except, of course, its energy, which it has continually dissipated throughout its life, first into the environment, and from there eventually into outer space—from which it originally reached us as solar energy.
In one way or another, the result is a never-ending stream of energy and matter flowing through several kinds of organism: from food to plant to animal to waste. Put crudely, an organism is an organized flow of energy and matter, ending up as waste. Or, more succinctly, it is a mechanism processing resources into waste. The energy and matter together form this mechanism, which both transfers and stores them for some time. This extremely intricate mechanism is what we know as an organism. And together, many organisms using each other's waste as their resource, as food, form a mechanism recycling mineral resources. These cycles are driven by energy that at present comes from the sun.
In slightly more detail, what happens is more complicated: the food has oft en first been stored within the organism and is used to power various life functions. Apart from storing energy and matter, organisms also grow, becoming larger and larger. Obviously, energy and matter are needed just to enable an organism to become larger (that is, an organism needs food so it can grow). Energy and matter are also used to maintain the organism. Like most things, all organisms wear out and decay; unavoidably, something goes wrong in the very complex and intricate processes within the organism's body so that its parts must constantly be repaired if they are to maintain their original function. These ongoing repairs are powered by the energy and matter in the organism's food. This maintenance is usually insufficient to restore all functions adequately, however, and ultimately the organism dies.
Yet another way matter and energy are used is for reproduction. Parents reproduce themselves in new, young organisms—their off spring; these new organisms eventually take the place of their parents when the latter wear out and die. Finally, some types of organisms, most of them animals (but never plants and molds), are mobile. This means that to feed or reproduce, for example, they can move from one place to another, using some of the energy which they have ingested.
Having lost energy and material in these various ways, the organism has to replace them. That is why animals get hungry and begin to search for food. Plants also get hungry but they use their food mainly for storage, maintenance, and growth, and at some point in their life cycle also for reproduction, that is, for making flowers and seeds. Plants also get thirsty: they evaporate water with their leaves, and also use part of it for building up their body. They drink water from the soil using their roots. The difference between plants and animals is that it is customary that we never talk about hunger or thirst, eating or drinking of plants, which we do in connection with animals. But in fact, they are doing the same.
Although for some time the energy and matter form part of the organism for all these functions, on its death the organism itself becomes waste, forming food for other organisms, such as bacteria or fungi, which break it down. Thus, the dead elephant mentioned earlier is first used as food by vultures and hyenas, and later what little they leave is consumed by bacteria and fungi. Eventually, all these organisms expel their waste into the environment, where it becomes food for plants again, and so on in an endless cycle of resource use and waste production. The cycle is like a snake biting its own tail, forming a circle. But if the snake didn't bite its tail and was instead a more or less straight line, the system would be exhaustive: the waste would remain unused forever, never to become food again. This straight line represents the process of resource depletion, and, at the same time, the piling up of waste, which pollutes the environment. By contrast, the two processes of resource depletion and waste production are connected to each other and are consequences of each other. The one does not go without the other. They are yin and yang. Resources enter the processing system and leave it as waste, which turns into food. Without recycling, resources deplete and waste accumulates.
A different pattern holds for the energy use of plants. They derive their energy directly from sunlight. Using this energy, a plant can build up complex chemical compounds from gases in the air and from certain minerals and water in the soil. The plant uses these compounds to build the cells of its body. Thus, the plant's food consists of solar energy, plus chemical compounds and water from the air and soil. All our energy ultimately comes from the sun and returns back to space. It keeps the great cycles of life processes turning, although overall it is a noncyclic, linear process of energy degradation. By depleting our resources and leaving our waste unused, we similarly follow a noncyclic, linear, exhaustive type of process, not only of energy but also of materials.
The question is, of course, why this difference between linear and cyclic processes? Why are cyclic processes typical for biological systems? Is there a reason nature follows that particular strategy in all organisms, and at all levels, from within organisms (the chemical level) to between organisms (the ecological level)? And why do we apply the simpler, linear process? Is it simply because we don't adjust the amounts of the production of resources and waste to each other? If anything, one might have expected the opposite to be the case: our sophisticated human society, with all its deliberate planning, might have developed the more complex cyclic type of processes. Homo sapiens is the only knowing species. With our greater intelligence, we would easily be able to master the complexity of cyclic processes, individually and with all their interactions. This would have been impossible for organisms of all those other species that are much less sophisticated than we are. Surely we are cleverer than a bacterium, aren't we?
But, disturbingly, with regard to recycling, the reverse is true. So, why? You may even wonder why those more complex cyclic processes occur in nature anyway. And, again, are they bound to biological systems and do they happen under all conditions, or are they only found under particular, restrictive conditions under which those systems are found? Moreover, if, one day we found ourselves living under similar, restrictive conditions, would we then need to develop similar systems of cyclic processing—for example, when either resource depletion or waste production become pressing, or perhaps both become a threat to our sustainability, our existence on Earth? How rigorous and rigid ought these cyclic systems be in order to guarantee our sustainability as a species and a society? Also, would they impose restrictions on our behavior, on our resource use, or even on the number of humans occurring on Earth? Would those restrictions be more or less stringent than those found in the nonhuman living world?
Let's depict the two types of processes in the form of a diagram. The figure above shows the stretched-out (linear) exhaustive system. It consists of a processing box with an input arrow on the left and an output arrow on the right. The input arrow can represent anything: food, gasoline, heat, garbage, wood chips—whatever. Similarly, the processing box can also represent anything: you yourself digesting your food; your automobile burning the gasoline to make heat, which moves a piston in the engine and ultimately makes the automobile move; and so on. The output at the right can be a product or mere waste. Thus, the product you made can also be something you really wanted to make one day, like a chair or a nicely polished gemstone for your loved one. Or it could be a task you wanted to do, like pollarding a willow tree in a meadow after the winter cold. Or it can be combustion heat—energy—for driving your heavy removal truck uphill, or it can be some wanted chemical product, like sunscreen. Similarly, however, waste as a processing output can also consist of some poison polluting the groundwater or heat lost somewhere in the environment (warming up a nearby river, for example).
Obviously, the amount of matter found on either side of the box must be the same, because we can neither make nor destroy matter. The same amount of matter that comes in at the left of figure, comes out at the right. In fact, the same applies to energy, as we cannot destroy energy either. But there is a difference: we lose unusable energy; it becomes useless heat. As a result of the processing activities inside the box, energy is said to degrade. Plants input solar energy into their chemical system, storing it temporarily, but in the end, they lose it as degraded, unusable heat. And when they are eaten by some animal, it obtains the stored energy, which it decomposes, releasing the energy as heat. That is no recycling either—it is extending the linear process the plants followed. And the same happens when we eat plant or animal food or when we burn oil, natural gas, or coal as fossil remains of ancient algae and plants. So, in all systems, there is an overall loss of energy in the form of heat. We degrade energy to a lower form by using it, but it is still there at the end of the process, and in the same amount—but in a useless form. We can release energy by burning wood or oil in stoves or in turbines or by digesting starch in the cells of our bodies. Or we can extract it from the heat radiated by the sun. Therefore, similar to matter, neither can we make energy ourselves, nor can we destroy it. And here's the difference between energy and matter: we can recycle matter, but we cannot recycle energy. If we want to recycle energy, we would first have to upgrade it again from its degraded form, which is impossible. Matter can be recycled, whereas energy always follows this linear, down-slope path of resource depletion toward waste production. Moreover, the compounds to the right of the box are overall more stable than the compounds to the left . And this has something to do with the overall loss of heat, which in turn has to do with the need to add new energy in order to be able to recycle these stable compounds.
The most general law in physics tells us just this: wherever you look in the universe—at large galactic processes or at small ones within or among atoms—there is always an increase in the amount of waste energy, heat accompanied by a rundown of material organization into disorderly waste. The running of organizations, be they individual organisms, sports clubs, governmental organizations, or societies and civilizations, indicates that energy degrades during this process, and at some point leaves as heat. We can't escape this law; we can only hope to slow down our own processes of waste production by being economical. And that's exactly what cyclic systems do. They minimize the amount of material used by recycling it internally. And when some material happens to be thrown away as waste, out of the cell, or out of the body as feces, some of it can still be taken up and used by some other organism—that's interorganism recycling. This is exactly what has been going on in nature since life began. And it goes on because the resources on Earth are finite, so recycling is imperative.
Energy too is limited. Living systems must have run out of usable chemical energy quite soon after they came into existence. Degraded energy cannot be upgraded again, and waste matter cannot be taken back into use without inputting the energy that was lost when orderly matter became disorderly waste matter. Fortunately, there is an external source of energy available to life on Earth: the energy from our nearest star, the sun. Every day for billions of years, the sun has supplied us with huge amounts of new energy that can be used to convert waste into a reusable form and allow new elements and new processes to be incorporated into new chemical "machinery" added to the existing machinery but using more energy.
So, we—along with plants, animals, bacteria, and fungi—are all driven by solar energy. But where does the sun itself get its energy? Some sixty years ago, we learned that in the core of the sun, the same fusion processes as in the operation of the hydrogen bomb have been going on for billions of years; the sun, therefore, can be considered one enormously large hydrogen bomb. It's a fusion bomb because two atoms of the hydrogen it contains fuse into one larger chemical element, helium, and this, in turn, fuses into yet other, even larger elements. In a sense, the whole universe appears to contain an unbelievably large number of gigantic hydrogen bombs: the stars. Some of them explode with incredible force, whereas others simply fade away when their hydrogen runs out. Some of the vast amount of energy produced by our sun reaches us here on Earth as light and heat. It is the process of hydrogen fusing into helium that has warmed Earth for all 4.5 billion years of its existence. And the sun will continue to warm Earth for about the same length of time in the future.
It seems that this kind of process occurs throughout the known universe: at first, there was only hydrogen, the element with which all other processes in the universe began. The history of the present state of the universe is written in terms of hydrogen. All chemical elements on Earth—those that make up our bodies and all things and organisms around us—form only a tiny fraction of all the hydrogen that exists. They are completely overshadowed by the enormous amount of hydrogen surrounding us in the universe. On this extremely large scale—as large as the distance covered by light during some fifteen billion years—it's almost all hydrogen around us, for as far you can see. The solar system, Earth, and we ourselves within it are the great exception.
And hydrogen also proves to be crucial for life. Before life began on Earth, there must have been plenty of hydrogen molecules available in the environment. Life began using these molecules because of the relative ease with which hydrogen can form and break chemical bonds. My personal theory is that most of the available hydrogen was bound first by selenium, and then by sulfur and phosphorus—and of course, still later by oxygen. Hydrogen and oxygen together form the compound water (H2O), which literally fills up whole oceans. Other elements, those able to bind with hydrogen and also able to break up chemical bonds quite easily again, began to cycle hydrogen around and around. However, over time, they unavoidably bound more and more of the free hydrogen molecules. The result was that in order to obtain or release hydrogen from the first elements, other elements that could pull harder on hydrogen and retain it for longer now entered the processes of life. Eventually, carbon was thus included in life processes, in its turn taking a share of the available hydrogen. At the same time, the reaction products of these hard-pulling elements also became less likely to break up; the elements that joined in later pull so hard that they are less reactive, and therefore their molecules are more stable. So, the flip side of the evolutionary coin is that compounds made by recent living organisms are less reactive than they must have been in the most ancient life forms. But retaining the hydrogen longer also meant storing some binding energy longer; in particular, it was the carbon compounds that specialized in energy storage (think of starch in plants or of animal fats and oils).

A fantastic surprise! I would say I was hooked by the first chapter but truth be told I was hooked by the first paragraph! Bonita Faye is quite the character and if you are used to reading southern fiction Bonita is up there with the best. This is not a spoiler because I'm going to talk about the very first sentence in the book. Bonita Faye starts her story off by telling us her secret, that she killed her no-good husband Billy Roy and does in such a charming manner I was soon gasping with laughter. Bonita is writing from her golden years and goes back and forth into the past to tell us her story which centres around that defining moment that changed her life when that abusive overbearing man left her life. It's hard to describe the genre here, I wouldn't call it mystery but there are more than the one murder so I'm apt to call it Southern Noir with high doses of humour. Sincerely, the book is more about a young Okie (part Arkie) woman raped by her step-father at 14, married to black-eyed Billy Roy at 17, uneducated who takes her life (and another's) into her own hands one day and sets forth to learn to accept her soul, love herself, and find the true-love of her life, but she finds two. Half the book takes place in Paris, France in the days after the liberation and end of WWII. This is where she has her awakening and education but darkness is here too. It's a gritty story, with the poverty and abuse of Bonita's early life, the Resistance and Nazi-occupied France repercussions still alive in the new French society, her last husband fights in the Korean war and Bonita has lived a hardscrabble life to get where she gets. However, throughout this book, it is first and foremost a Southern Fiction tale of charm and comedy. Humour is the order of the day and I've literally not enjoyed a book simply so much because it made me smile for some time. Bonita is the type of woman you want to have for a friend, a true southern woman, perhaps from the wrong side of the tracks, but she raised herself up and kept the best of both worlds chucking what she had no use for from each. Laugh out loud funny with its hijinx and charm.
A Bookaholic, Pro-life, Pro-Family, Pro-Oxford Comma, Catholic (with Asperger's) who reads and writes as her obsession. I've been reading over 400 books a year lately. These are my ramblings on some of the books I read. To read about all the books I read and comment on, visit me at LibraryThing or Goodreads.
I've been blogging since 2007 and at this point (July 2015) am trying my hand at turning the theme of this blog towards mystery, thriller, and crime, fiction and nonfiction. I have some special interest topics and categories within this broad genre which include (but are not limited to) serial killers, scandi-crime, Victorian history and historicals, history of the criminally insane and asylums, psychopathology, death, funerary practices and burial, corpses, true crime and anything dealing with the real life macabre, or that portrayed in fiction.
I also read a short story a day from various collections, sometimes anthologies othertimes collections of a single author's work. These reviews are also posted here and while they are of mixed genre the mystery, thriller, horror, gothic and macabre often appear within their pages as well.
I also blog about graphic novels and manga on a separate BLOG.

Thank you for the review. Both the book and author new to me.ReplyDeleteReplies
She was totally new to me too! But something just caught my attention with this one. The publisher plans on re-publishing her other works too and I'm really looking forward to them, but they are all probably available in libraries too since thee're 90s/2000s books.Delete

Ramsey High School, established in 1909, is a four-year comprehensive community public high school serving students in ninth through twelfth grades from Ramsey, in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States, operating as the lone secondary school of the Ramsey Public School District. Students from Saddle River attend the district's middle school and then have the option of attending either Ramsey High School or Northern Highlands Regional High School as part of sending/receiving relationships with each of the respective districts.[3][4][5][6]
As of the 2014-15 school year, the school had an enrollment of 856 students and 85.5 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 10.0:1. There were 28 students (3.3% of enrollment) eligible for free lunch and 4 (0.5% of students) eligible for reduced-cost lunch.[1]
Ramsey High School is accredited by the New Jersey Department of Education.
The first class to graduate from Ramsey was the class of 1908, and they went to school in the current Borough Hall. After that, students went to John Y. Dater School, which was a regional K-12 school at the time. The first Ramsey High School was constructed in 1912, with the first commencement held in June 1913. An addition was constructed in 1923. By 1935, additional space was needed, and a new building was proposed to take advantage of funding available through the New Deal-era Public Works Administration. Groundbreaking ceremonies for the new building were held on January 16, 1936, and the "New Ramsey High School" was dedicated in 1937.
With baby boomers filling the school beyond capacity, the school informed its sending districts of Franklin Lakes and Wyckoff that it would no longer accept students from those two communities at the high school beyond the 1956-57 school year, with the two communities joining Oakland to form the Ramapo Indian Hills Regional High School District, which opened its doors in 1957 at Ramapo High School.[7]
Awards, Recognition, and Rankings[edit]
The school was the 22nd-ranked public high school in New Jersey out of 339 schools statewide in New Jersey Monthly magazine's September 2014 cover story on the state's "Top Public High Schools", using a new ranking methodology.[8] The school had been ranked 30th in the state of 328 schools in 2012, after being ranked 33rd in 2010 out of 322 schools listed.[9] The magazine ranked the school 13th in 2008 out of 316 schools.[10] The school was ranked 27th in the magazine's September 2006 issue, which included 316 schools across the state.[11] Schooldigger.com ranked the school tied for 29th out of 381 public high schools statewide in its 2011 rankings (a decrease of 14 positions from the 2010 ranking) which were based on the combined percentage of students classified as proficient or above proficient on the mathematics (93.2%) and language arts literacy (99.1%) components of the High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA).[12]
In its 2013 report on "America's Best High Schools", The Daily Beast ranked the school 805th in the nation among participating public high schools and 58th among schools in New Jersey.[13]
In the 2011 "Ranking America's High Schools" issue by The Washington Post, the school was ranked 61st in New Jersey and 1,743rd nationwide.[14] Ramsey High School was recognized by Newsweek magazine as one of the top 500 high schools in the nation.
In 2010, on New Jersey's High School Proficiency Assessment (HSPA), 97.2% of 2010 graduates scored at the proficient or advanced proficient level on the math section, while 98.6% of Ramsey High School students scored at the proficient or advanced proficient levels on the language arts sections of the test. 93% of Ramsey High School's 2010 graduating class took the SAT. Student scores exceeded state averages, with those taking the exam averaging 563 on the math section (vs. 520 for all test takers in New Jersey), 576 on the verbal section (vs. 515) and scored 515 on the essay portion of the exam (vs. 515 statewide).[15]

I updated the page a little to separate the modules into different groups so that we concentrate on the important set of modules - at least for now. I'm sure I put some modules in the wrong group so please go ahead and update that as needed. I also removed some old modules that we don't have anymore in trunk (derby, spring).

To train and work with staff of the Administrative, Clinical, Pathology, and Education Cores to ensure timely and accurate data entry and management 3. To work with the NACC to provide timely and complete submission of local UDS and Neuropathology data. 4. To provide data reports to core staff and investigators on a routine and as needed basis. 5. To provide biostatistical consulting to individual ADRC investigators in the design, coordination, and analyses of ADRC-related projects, including pilot projects.
The Data Management and Statistics Core provides consulting on and provision of data coordination and biostatistical services to promote and optimize the research of the USC ADRC. Provision of accurate and reliable database support, development of valid study designs, and appropriate analysis of resulting data are fundamental to the completion of valid research.
