The Next Apocalypse

I've been reading this very good book, just started last night, i think. The author is an underwater archaeologist and he wrote a book called the next apocalypse that's about collapses throughout history. He actually talks about a lot of the stuff we talk about in this show. And one of the points he makes is that this idea of like, lost cities in dark jungles and what not, is based entirely on misconceptions. If you had to pick anywhere to be stranded in the world, in terms of bio regions, you would pick a jungle like the amazon,. That's why people live there for so long.
