Possible implications for quantum gravity are considered. We discuss the Hawking and Coleman approach to the vanishing of the cosmological constant by using the new action and find that the cosmological constant is probably zero. A possible scenario for obtaining such an action from superstring field theory is discussed.7pages, LATEX, SFU-HEP-110-93High Energy Physics - TheoryGeneral Relativity and Quantum Cosmologytext
