What's the sci-fi book about an environmental doomsday? The ice caps melt, processed foods start causing spontaneous combustion during digestion, an airplane impales a building in NYC (!), basically, the world ends because nobody believes the envirowhacks.

Just can't remember the name of the book!

THE END OF THE DREAM by Philip Wylie. He also wrote the non fiction A GENERATION OF VIPERS and AN ESSAY ON MORALS which both are out of print. A GENERATION OF VIPERS has had at least 10 printings, and was required reading in some college courses before 1966, when the NEA and the Communists finally were able to take over our educational systems. END OF THE DREAM was Wylie's last book he wrote before he died. He was depressed that we were really screwing things up. But, he was not really a "green."
A good read though. Regards
