My Latest Peer-Reviewed Article Published
In early April, 2020, I was asked to submit a paper to the peer-reviewed journal Earth & Environmental Science Research & Reviews (EESRR). I submitted a draft shortly thereafter, using a conservative tone typical for peer-reviewed papers. My contribution was derived from an essay previously posted in this space. The paper was accepted and fast-tracked for publication: “Will COVID-19 Trigger Extinction of All Life on Earth?” was published late on 24 April 2020 (pdf). Because EESRR is an open-access journal, the entire text is freely available.
If this conservative, peer-reviewed journal allows the question expressed in the title of this paper, then I suspect you know the answer. The answer is not favorable for humans.
I have earned no money, nor will I earn money, for this article. Indeed, there were significant page charges attendant to having the paper published. I explained the process of peer review in this space about two years ago.
In early March, 2020, I was invited to submit a paper by the editor of a special issue of another peer-reviewed journal, Learning Sustainability: Earth, Experience, Ethics. I revised that paper shortly after it was reviewed by four academic experts. Perhaps the paper will be published within a few months under this title: “Is Learning Sustainability a Myth?”

Mugs, tote bags, iPhone cases, tee shirts, and other pragmatic goods affiliated with the latter book, and with NBL in general, are available on Redbubble. I do not earn money from these items. Indeed, they have returned far less money than it cost to create and distribute them. I list them at the bottom of posts in this space in support of my artistically inclined partner, who created them.
