James Lovelock - Homage to Gaia and other works (11 books) JAMES LOVELOCK (1919–2022) was an English independent scientist, environmentalist and futurist. He was best known for proposing the Gaia hypothesis, which argues that all life on Earth is part of a self-regulating entity. With a PhD in medicine, Lovelock began his career performing cryopreservation experiments on rodents. His methods were influential in the theories of cryonics (the cryopreservation of humans). He invented the electron capture detector, and using it, became the first to detect the widespread presence of chlorofluorocarbons in the atmosphere. While designing scientific instruments for NASA, he developed the Gaia hypothesis (also known as the Gaia theory). It proposed that living organisms interact with their inorganic surroundings on Earth to form a synergistic and self-regulating, complex system that helps to maintain and perpetuate the conditions for life on the planet. After refining the idea with microbiologist Lynn Margulis, he published GAIA: A NEW LOOK AT LIFE ON EARTH (1979), which emphasized the idea of Earth as a super-organism. Gaia was an immediate inspiration for the green movement, but it took years to get overt recognition from the scientific establishment. That came in 1988 when the American Geophysical Union held a meeting in San Diego that drew leading physicists, biologists and climatologists to weigh the evidence for Gaia and debate its implications for the future of science. In 2001, more than 1,000 scientists met in Amsterdam to declare that the planet "behaves as a single self-regulating system comprised of physical, chemical, biological and human components." In A ROUGH RIDE TO THE FUTURE (2015), Lovelock wrote elegantly about "our irreplaceable value to the Earth, to Gaia . . . because if our form of life, from the smallest bacterium to the largest whale, was wholly destroyed from the Earth, life could never restart on the barren planet that would occupy our present position in the solar system. Preserving life on earth in some form is the challenge for, and responsibility of, humankind now." In his last published book, NOVACENE (2019), co-authored by journalist Bryan Appleyard, Lovelock delivered what he called "a shout of joy" for the colossal expansion of human knowledge during his lifetime, and hoped for the potential salvation of humanity by a new generation of artificially intelligent cyborgs that would understand the importance of other living things in maintaining a habitable planet. Lovelock died at his home in Dorset on 26 July 2022, of complications from a fall. It was his 103rd birthday.
