February 23, 1999: Ecology & Biological Warfare - Jeanne Cavelos

Jeanne Cavelos examines ecological stress, emerging disease, and the possibility that biological warfare could exploit vulnerabilities in natural and human systems.

Art Bell asks how population, environmental damage, genetic engineering, and modern travel change the scale of biological risk. The discussion separates naturally evolving threats from deliberate attack and considers how difficult detection and attribution would be.
