I have long been inspired by the exceptional work of James Lovelock an independent scientist living in Devon. He has been the forerunner of countless scientific discoveries and while still not accepted by many people his theory of Gaia is quite simply Genius.
I've tried explaining this theory to many people in the past with little success or an unsatisfactory response ( I was quite literally blown away when I first investigated and importantly understood Gaia theory) So I've posted a few introductory videos to help explain the theory.
In short Gaia theory states that the living and non-living components of the earth form a complex interacting system that can be thought of as a single organism. This biosphere regulates the Earth's environment and so maintains the extraordinary and unique conditions for life over billions of years.
