"Good Stuff. Lester Brown is head of the Earth Policy Institute. He presents arguments, reason and plans for addressing the climate crisis. some of his plans i like, but did not feel they are realistic. a great read."
"An up to date summary of stats around the most pressing issues facing mankind (global warming, lack of potable water, dwindling fossil fuel reserves, overpopulation). It is sobering."
"This book was a revelation to me. Of course, I realized that there were serious environmental risks to the planet, and that a major shift to renewable energy was required. But I didn't fully understand just how unsustainable our entire economic system is - the way we grow our food, build our buildings, dispose of our waste, transport ourselves from home to work, etc., etc. And I'd never really thought about the relationship between environmental degradation and failed states from a political perspective. My dad gave me this book a year ago, and I put off reading it because I figured it would be depressing and overly technical. I wish now I'd read it right away. It's an incredibly important book, really accessible and easy to read. Yes, it's depressing in many ways, but it offers creative and in many cases simple solutions to these major problems. I really think everybody should read this book."
"I had to read this book for a class. It is a very good detailed book about global warming and really interesting solutions to some of the issues with the climate."
