James Lovelock - The Revenge of Gaia

from page 132 – we need a warning placed on every bulldozer, chainsaw, and on all large energy-using devices ‘Do nothing that would harm the earth’
 
from page 141 – I think we would be wise to aim at a stabilized (human) population of about ½ to 1 billion
 
from page 142 – Our role is to teach and set an example by our lives. In purely human affairs, Gandhi showed how to do it; his modern equivalents might come from the Deep Ecology movement, founded by the Norwegian philosopher Arne Naess.
 
and from page 154 – ….we should listen to the Deep Ecologists and let them be our guide
