Homo Ecophagus: A Deep Diagnosis to Save the Earth

Home Ecophagus by Warren M. Hern examines the significant challenges to the survival of all species on Earth due to human activities over the past tens of thousands of years. He argues that humans have evolved cultures and adaptations that have become malignant, converting all material into human biomass and support systems, which is incompatible with the survival of the human species and most other species.

Home Ecophagus, written by Warren M. Hern, delves into a comprehensive examination of the critical challenges facing the survival of not only the human species but also all other species on Earth as a result of human activities over the past tens of thousands of years. The title of the book reflects Hern's novel designation for the human species: "The man who devours the ecosystem." Throughout its evolutionary journey, Hern observes that humans have developed cultures and adaptations that have transformed into malignant entities, and at the global level, the human species possesses all the primary characteristics of a malignant neoplasm. This malignant transformation involves the conversion of all plant, animal, organic, and inorganic material into human biomass or its supportive adjuncts and support systems.

Hern argues that this process is inherently incompatible with the long-term survival of both the human species and the majority of other species on our planet. He presents a diagnosis and prognosis of the current environmental impasse, highlighting the urgent need for transformative action to address these pressing issues.
