How the rich are destroying the Earth

"Bringing to bear decades of experience as a leading environmental journalist, Herve Kempf describes the invincibility that many of the world's wealthy feel in the face of global warming and other ecological disasters, and how their unchecked privilege is thwarting action on the most vexing problems facing our world. Kempf deftly illuminates the links between global ecology and global economy, describing the alarming disparity between the millions of engaged citizens around the world who are trying to do right by the planet - recognizing that we're all in the same boat - and the world's economic elites - who continue to benefit by plundering the environment because they have access to "lifeboats" that insulate them from the resulting catastrophes."--Jacket.
