This book is a controversial expose of anti-environmentalism, tracing its rise in the USA and its rapid global spread. Environmentalists have been subject to suppression, physical and legal intimidation, violence and scapegoating, from the forests of Canada, Latin America, South Asia, the Pacific and Australia, to the oil fields of the Niger Delta and road construction sites in the UK. Readers are urged to beat the backlash before its too late. -- Publisher description. |
