3 topics of The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight

*Man vs. earth*

On pg 52, Thom states that earth's biggest predator is: man. Us humans are destroying many systems and resources. 

*Culture* 

Older cultures (customs) vs present 

Then, people lived in suitable places for life, sustainable basically

Cooperation

City states

Now, we use resources selfishly. 

Next generation ? 

*taking vs. saving* 
 
The effect of our generation is the severity of global warming 

Preservation ? for our earth and future generations  
 
Oil takes years to be made not just thousands but millions of years, while our generation wastes endlessly 

Greed ? 

A good way to think about it is 
"Over drafting" our natural resources :/
