Protecting the Planet: Environmental Champions from Conservation to Climate Change

The Industrial Revolutions changed the world from agrarian-based societies to machine-based societies. Now we are on the cusp of a new energy future - the Renewables Revolution. And we owe it all to Climate Change. Featuring fact-filled U.S. conservation history - from the early days of Audubon, Muir, Leopold, and Carson to the contemporary times of Hansen, McKibben, Gore, and Mann - Protecting the Planet explains how we got to this point. The father-daughter writing team then concludes this book by analyzing a variety of solutions. But will we choose the right ones in time to save our place on the planet?
