| DESCRIPTION |
 |
 |
 |
Responding effectively to global warming requires doing much more than changing light bulbs or even converting from fossil fuels to renewable energy. That's because global warming is just one aspect of a larger problem: the unsustainable civilization we've created. To stave off climate catastrophe, we need to re-imagine the good life and focus our efforts on converting to low-carbon alternatives. As the Oceans Rise makes the connection between the choices we make and their increasingly dire environmental effects. It then goes beyond save the planet" books to offer a hopeful glimpse of the future based on nearly 100 interviews with experts, activists, business leaders, government officials, and others who are leading the way to sustainability. To help readers move beyond good intentions, its five-step "Path to Action" provides concrete guidance for overcoming the stumbling blocks that keep us from doing as much as we should.
