Such fatalism is not only dangerous but mistaken. For much of the 1990s I traveled the world to write a book about our environmental predicament. I returned home sobered by the extent of the damage we are causing and by the speed at which it is occurring. But there is nothing inevitable about our self-destructive behavior.

Informing much, if not all, of Radcliffe's rhetoric is an unfounded and simply mistaken view that this graduate life is not as important as the research fellows who will replace them.
