Green Gone Wild: Elevating Nature Above Human Rights (Paperback)

Editorial Reviews

Review

Dave Stirling's book is a crucial and long-overdue effort to shine a spotlight on this most burdensome of federal statutes, and the extreme green movement that propels it. --Hugh Hewitt, national radio talk show host and Constitutional Law Professor

Dave Stirling's book makes a strong case that the federal government's confiscatory regulation of private property in the name of protecting so-called endangered plant and wildlife species is another step in trampling our Fifth Amendment guarantees. --Walter E. Williams, Professor of Economics, George Mason University

Mr. Stirling's book calls for balance between preserving the natural world and protecting the living needs of people. The green movement's extreme agenda for preserving plant and wildlife species has not only cost Americans billions of dollars every year, while saving only a handful of species, but continues to enable the deaths of millions of the world's poor people. That agenda has also cost many Americans their lives, jobs, and homes. Finally, a book that does not cater to politcal correctness. --Michael Reagan, national radio program host

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read......, June 9, 2008

By	Roger J. Baccigaluppi (Sacramento, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This should be a "must read" for all who claim to want to save the environment. The human cost of some of our well intentioned national policies, like the Endangered Species Act, are well documented, and at the very least should be read and absorbed by everyone engaged in public policy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Material, May 29, 2008

By	John A. Yelaeh - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Outstanding evidence that exposes the environmental movement for what it is : a vessel to create a world tax and a more centralized authority with fewer human freedoms and more power than ever vested in goverment, all cloaked in grabbing people's hearts about saving the earth.

This book exposes the truth and is a must read to counterbalance the propaganda the big media bombards us with daily. I heard the author interviewed by Jason Lewis (KTLK-FM 100.3 Mpls MN). Five Stars for the author !!
