THE LAYMAN’S GUIDE TO THE TRUTH ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING AND HOW WE CAN END IT This book is written for the general public, and explains the politically-charged and oftentimes confusing topic of global warming in terms that the average person can readily understand. It cuts through what is frequently self-serving propaganda and twisting of facts so that clarity can prevail. This book deals straight-on with this life-threatening crisis in which we now find ourselves. Because the global warming situation can end civilization as we know it (and do so in relatively short order), this book is not light or superficial. This book outlines specific strategies and actions we can take at the individual, local, and national levels to not only help mitigate global warming and advance sustainability ourselves, but also to induce our federal government to implement a national energy policy that can render our nation fossil-free before 2050 and defuse the global warming time bomb.
