7 practical steps to save our planet

Summary

Energy policy advisor Hal Harvey and reporter Justin Gillis hone in on the seven areas where ambitious but eminently practical changes will have the greatest effect: electricity production, transportation, buildings, industry, urbanization, use of land, and investment in promising new green technologies. In a lively, jargon-free style, the pair illuminate how our political economy really works<U+2014>and how we can insert ourselves into important decisions to ensure that the most climate-conscious choices are being made
