This was a good book. The facts were somewhat twisted. I was forced to read this book for a "book talk" presented by UAB. The author came and she is truly a lunatic. She wanted to stop carbon emissions 100% at that very second. Never mind her entire audience drove to hear her rave about carbon emissions. This book was also a little out of touch. You can tell she has been isolated. She stated the media does not pay attention to global warming. (this was before the economic crisis) That is completely false. She just doesn't turn on the t.v.

Anyway I did not like this book. I had to read it. It was not balanced at all.
