Overview
Saving Humanity was first published in 2018 by Friesen Press.[15] In the book, Hu Jiaqi argues that mankind faces threats in many respects,[16] including terrorism, pandemics, wars, and ecological disasters.[17] It proposes that human beings will not be extinct by those threats. Instead, the chief culprit of human extinction is technology.[18] If technology continues to develop, human beings could disappear from the earth in less than two or three hundred years.[19]
To avoid the extinction crisis, the development of science and technology must be checked and restricted,[20] and a world government should be established.[21]
