Reseña del editor:

With historical and economic detail, this book explores the reasons why a global economic system, geared toward private profit, has spelled vulnerability for the earth's fragile natural environment. It sets out to take the case for saving the planet beyond visions of doom, arguments about sustainability, and individual solutions.
