Individuals, society at large, and even environmental groups are still suggesting that small adjustments like LEDs and recycling will somehow turn back the destruction. It's a huge problem.<br /><br />The only realistic assessment I've seen of the crises we face is in the book <i>Deep Green Resistance</i>. It examines historical movements for change, what worked, and what didn't. It weighs the social and political resources we have now to address environmental issue in a meaningful way, and formulates a strategy which may actually work in the time we have left. I highly recommend it for anyone concerned about the future of our world. <br /><br />The Hawai'i library system doesn't have it, unfortunately, but you can read it online at <a href="http://deepgreenresistance.net/" rel="nofollow">http://deepgreenresistance.net/</a>Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02790917341588271564noreply@blogger.com
