Book description
Looking after 'The Environment' should be straightforward - no-one
wants to destroy the world. And yet in every 'green' area we are
either failing to take the essential steps to prevent destruction of
the planet or are being deceived - often by ourselves. By using the
scalpel of eco-logic it is possible to open up the reality beneath the
layers of confusion and deception, turn recognized situations inside
out, identify hidden agendas in the so-called Experts, and come up
with real solutions to our green problems.
Examining issues such as Climate Change Sceptics, Celebrity greens
and the charity gig bandwagon, 'Fair' trade, Organics, Renewable
energy, Recycling, Carbon offsets, Sustainability and much more,
ECO-LOGIC is a book to shake up the green movement and give it a new impetus.
