Synopsis

In this brave and provocative work, former US Vice President, Al Gore asserts that only a radical rethinking of our relationship with nature will save the earth's ecology for future generations. Gore's analysis of where we've gone wrong ranges across politics, history, science, economics, psychology, and religion. He argues that only a worldwide mobilization can save us from disaster and presents a brilliant and comprehensive plan for action that encompasses not only the earth's ecology, but also population trends, appropriate technology, and environmental education.
