An interesting essay: Read it right now!

Here's an interesting essay that Dr Priyandarsanan Dharma Rajan recommends EcoWatch readers read right away.

Here's a quotation from the essay

".... Some quixotic writers have toyed with the idea of last-ditch measures. They say, “Let’s conserve the millions of surviving species and races by deep-freezing fertilized eggs or tissue samples for later resurrection.”

Or,

“Let’s record the genetic codes of all the species and try to re-create organisms from them later.”

The essay is written by Dr E.O. Wilson, world-renowned biologist and Harvard University Professor and adapted from his new book titled, “The Creation".

Dr Wilson has won two Pulitzer Prizes for his books titled, “On Human Nature” and “The Ants.”
