This scientific paper is super depressing as it outlines arguments which sum up to the fact that we are facing inevitable collapse, probable catastrophe and possible extinction due to global warming. I think there is no point getting depressed but we need to acknowledge the facts of global warming and start addressing the inevitable adaptations our society will have to go through. No point discussing any more. We need to start acting now.

Some ideas from the book can be found on slides here.

Great book by Brian Christian on using computer algorithm techniques to quickly solve everyday problems.
Incomparable to Social Animal. Intro and end worth a try.
