Ecocide : Environmental Gloom and Doom Explained in Everyday Language

By Adam D.C. Cherson

Besides climate warming and oil addiction, the environmental crisis encompasses matters of deforestation, food production, biodiversity loss, water management, waste disposal, human health and psychology, raw materials, nuclear proliferation, terrorism, and the paradoxes of technological, economic, and military prowess. Ecocide unravels the enigma of environmental degradation in search of ecumenical and pragmatic solutions for decisionmakers and civilians.Some of the cutting edge techniques and strategies introduced in Ecocide include: * A new liquid fuel process that could turn almost any country into a net exporter of oil * A climate change strategy that is fair to both developing and post-developed nations * A technique to end landfilling plus recover previously landfilled wasteFollowing each chapter, a series of frequently asked questions provides concrete answers on day to day matters such as: * Should I cook with natural gas or electricity (microwave, toaster oven, etc.)? * What fish to eat to save endangered fisheries around the world? * What is better for the environment, throwing food waste into the trash or down the drain with a food disposal? * Is there anything we can do with nuclear waste? * Should I consume GMO foods?Intended for non-environmentalists and specialists alike, Ecocide presents an overview of the expanding field of Environmental Science and Policy, including the latest research and technology.The author is an ecological policy lawyer from the United States of America. He is also the former editor of Ecosider, a web based meta-journal, and is the founder of Greencore Companies (environmental information services). This edition is an expanded version of the book previously published as Geocide.
