So she emphasizes how ecology "evolves" the same way cities and galaxies evolve - it's complexity theory or quantum chaos science. So then she says if we can unify by realizing this information math pattern then we can have an evolutionary break-through that will save everything for reality. Some kind of techno-spiritual singularity for sustainability.
http://www.judecurrivan.com/ so she has a new book along these lines - with her Ervin Laszlo collaboration.
Her latest is The Cosmic Hologram- In-formation at the Center of Creation, the first book of the Transformation trilogy. She is currently writing book two Gaia: Her-Story.So the big problem with this analysis is that cities are not the "same" as ecology but rather the opposite of ecology. The symmetric math of quantum chaos collapses this stuff - so she says the internet grows the same way ecology evolves. Hence the common term of "ecosystems" applied to computer networks is now not just a metaphor but to be taken literally!
This is total bunk as Silicon Valley produced the greatest concentration of toxic waste pollution and cell phones are causing a brain cancer epidemic and evolution ended for large mammals, due to lack of habitat, in the 1970s, according to conservation biologist Dr. Michael Soule.
The whole "information" fixation of physicists disregards the entropy that science itself has caused. Life as ecology is based on negentropy. So to project entropy onto the Universe by left-brain dominant science is to inherently do the opposite for life on earth, that is right-brain dominant.
So then people eat this stuff up - why? Because they don't have a choice! Just as people really don't have a choice about using cell phones - all the public telephone booths are gone and time is accelerating on Earth as space of ecology gets destroyed. So people drink the Techno-spiritual Kool-Aid.
We want to think that if we have solar-powered green houses we can save the environment from global warming. The problem with this techno-fix model is that half of the global warming emissions have been since the 1980s - and the emissions keep accelerating exponentially. Even if we stopped all emissions tomorrow - the earth would still keep heating up. First of all the "global dimming" effect would stop - so we would hit 2 degrees just from that. The oceans would keep emitting heat from having stored so much, creating a 40 year delayed effect of global warming. Then as the arctic ice disappears the planet will heat up even more and faster from methane.
So we emit some 40 billion tons a year of global warming gases. We can only emit 90 billion tons to officially keep the temp below a 2 degree increase - so that means we have only a couple years just based on our emissions - and that does not include all the built in continued warming! So that means we have to activate a negative carbon sink of 100s of billions of tons - fundamentally reversing all the entropy of industrial civilization itself for the past 150 years.
So clearly Jude Currivan is not taking ecology seriously. She trained in astrophysics cosmology and quantum mechanics. But I guess now she is going to teach us about Gaia. Hilarious.
