Much of the Earth''s rainforests have been destroyed to make room for farmland. Global warming is spiraling out of control. A tipping point has been reached, and Earth''s climate has been irrevocably damaged. Many life forms are threatened. Human beings are now officially an endangered species. Is this nightmare scenario our destiny? This book sorts out the facts from the overheated fiction, the actual reality from both the environmental hype and the conservative political evasions, while also suggesting ways in which we can still avert disaster or our very worst nightmare scenario.
