| 1. |  | Plan B 4.0: Mobilizing to Save Civilization (Substantially Revised) from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $7.00 Customer Review:  Plan B is an amazing effort - I could hardly put it down! Like many people, I've put a lot of thought into the multitude of woes that face the planet and our poor (oh so human) race, and I've tried earnestly to do my bit here and there to make a difference... Like just about anyone who's... |

| 2. |  | Plan B 3.0: Mobilizing to Save Civilization (Substantially Revised) from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $5.87 Customer Review: Brown's contemporary plan for saving human civilization is a "MUST READ" on the primary reading source for my doctoral International Communications course. My environmentalist-professor sensed that we not only hadn't read this book but that we didn't care enough about the frightening discoveries... |

| 3. |  | Ecopsychology: Restoring the Earth, Healing the Mind from Sierra Club Books Price: $9.86 Customer Review: This is a great anthology by thinkers operating outside the contemporary box of psychology, and other corporate forces. Every article is a wake up call intended to jar humans out of their prolonged sleepiness. The authors hope to engage discussion on a new (and at the same time old) propositions... |

| 4. |  | A Pivotal Moment: Population, Justice, and the Environmental Challenge from Island Press Price: $19.99 Customer Review:  "A Pivotal Moment" is a mixed bag. On the positive side, contributors like Brian O'Neill, Robert Engelman and Lynne Gaffikin provide persuasive evidence that stabilizing populations is key to addressing environmental problems. This core message is important and timely, given that the population /... |

| 5. |  | Outgrowing The Earth from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $3.97 Customer Review:  Quite the volume to approach the essential and much misunderstood issue of food security. Critical reading to develop an argument for policy chance and avoid, or lessen, the crisis. The book is dated 2004 and like it suggests there is a strong feeling to expand and update figures and analysis in the... |

| 6. |  | Eco-Economy: Building an Economy for the Earth from W.W. Norton & Co. Price: $3.25 Customer Review: If you're interested in thinking about economics and being ecological and you don't know too much about it, this book is a nice read but take it with a grain of salt. If you get past the starry-eyed "visionary" thinking and wonder about the nuts and bolts then there are glaring omissions in the book... |

| 7. |  | Plan B 2.0: Rescuing a Planet Under Stress and a Civilization in Trouble from W. W. Norton Price: $2.66 Customer Review: This is an inspiring call to action, no doubt. But I think for someone toating environmentalism, Plan A should have been to stop putting out Plan B 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, etc. Yes, the book is offered online. But, then why do new versions of the book need to be offered again and again in paperback. There... |

| 8. | [no image] | Who Will Feed China?: Wake-Up Call for a Small Planet (Environmental Alert) from Island Press Customer Review: I read this book in the late 90's and didn't give much thought. Now with the USA being so much in debt to China this book is truly a "Wake Up Call." If we the American people are unable to pay our debt to China and they need to foreclose, what do you think they will need the most..? It wont be... |

| 9. |  | The Earth from the Air from Thames & Hudson Ltd Customer Review: This book is great, and filled with photographs you probably won't find anywhere else. The photographs are diverse and often truly astonishing. You will often find yourself staring at a photograph for a long time in amazement. |

| 13. |  | State of the World 2001 (Worldwatch Institute Books) from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $15.00 Customer Review: Lester Brown et al have written an alarmist book. I grew up during the years when the word "environment" came to have meaning. Over the decades, I have read a number of books on the state of our environment. Lester Brown et al write what amounts to saying that we are "going to Hell in a... |

| 15. | [no image] | BUILDING A SUSTAINABLE SOCIETY from W.w. Norton and Company Customer Review: Written at the beginning of the 1980s by the Head of World Watch, Lester R. Brown, this book, was a clarion call to a nation just beginning to crawl from under the "oil shock" of the mid 70s. At the time, energy efficient cars were in vogue and environmental consciousness was at an all time high.... |
