Tiivistelmä: | Hope for a sustainable society is encouraged by many recent gains in understanding environmental problems and by a wide variety of positive actions undertaken in the past few years. Yet it is uncertain as to whether much, if any, overall net progress is being made. More attention should be given to key barriers, two of which are discussed here. Information overload, or infoglut, brought on by the burgeoning information society, creates a plethora of entertaining and commercial distractions from our many problems. |
