An Important Contribution

The Moral Highground
I wanted to love this book, because I wanted to find some hope in the matter of global warming. But I couldn't find much within the covers that I would call practical.

This review is from: Ignition: What You Can Do to Fight Global Warming and Spark a Movement (Paperback)
The authors are so clearly passionate about all of the issues that truly matter in fighting the global climate crisis. This is an inspiring read for anyone seeking a strong foundation in the science and economics of the energy challenges we're facing, as well as thoughtful strategies for making a real difference. Great book for long-time and soon-to-be activists.

I wanted to love this book, because I wanted to find some hope in the matter of global warming. But I couldn't find much within the covers that I would call practical. There is little here to appeal to ordinary citizens. It makes me think of the Federalist Papers, the theoretical arguments in favor of representative government. It just doesn't have a lot to do with ordinary citizens, trying to earn a living and support a family. "Ignition" is probably a great read for theorists, but if your interests lie more in the realm of practical action, rather than theoretical underpinnings, "Ignition" is going to be a tough slog. It surely was for me.
