Terence McKenna – 122 Trialogue 1991 Part 2

Today’s program features the second tape in a series of trialogue tapes that were recorded in September 1991
at a private recording session with Rupert Sheldrake, Ralph Abraham, and Terence M cKenna. It begins with a
wrap-up of their previous conversation, titled “Grass Roots Science”. And then they begin with a new topic,
introduced by Terence M cKenna and his plan for “Saving the World”.

[NOTE: All quotes below are by Terence M cKenna.]

“If mere speaking about saving the world could do the job it would have been saved quite some time ago.”
“As I look at the various factors which seem to be pushing the world toward ruin, the one I come back to
again and again as being central to any social program which would create a sane and caring future for our
children and lessen the impact of human beings on the environment is the problem of over-population. All
other social problems can be seen as being driven by the excess of human population on the Earth.”
