Eco-Sanity cuts through rhetoric, false alarms, and media hype to deliver concise and authoritative summaries of what we know about the most important environmental issues of our time: cancer, global warming, acid rain, pesticides, automobiles, plastic, oil spills, chlorine, ozone depletion, deforestation, nuclear power, resource depletion, electromagnetic fields, and toxic chemicals. Eco-Sanity is easy to read, loaded with facts, and extensively documented. It describes the considerable progress made since 1960 in cleaning and protecting the environment, and challenges the environmental movement to adopt new tactics to ensure that the progress continues. And it provides the tools needed to make this change, including seven rules of critical thinking, seven lessons from science, and a 40-point plan of action for the future. From acid rain to toxic chemicals, this book contains everything you need to know to become a more effective advocate of environmentalism in the 1990s. |
