This controversial author presents a new perspective on oday's environmental issues. Taking on those who hail the natural lifestyle as the healthy, politically correct path, he examines the economics of green consumerism, the reality of saving the environment, how historical cultures may have influenced environmental damage, and why being ecologically correct may have a more damaging effect on our environment. Not just a regurgitation of theories, this book offers practical alternatives and realistic strategies to enhance our natural resources and environment in harmony with today's modern technology. It should be required reading in classrooms teaching biology, history, forestry, agriculture, natural resources, agricultural engineering, ecology, and other natural sciences. Readers interested in the environment, natural resources, and green consumerism will find this book to be a great information source filled with fresh, innovative perspectives.
