"Hope for a Heated Planet uncovers the most pressing challenges facing society today, from the massive fossil fuel lobby to the enlightened corporations that are joining the movement to 'go green.' Readers learn about the tremendous potential of renewable energy sources - wind, solar, and biofuel - and the startling conclusions of experts who say society can do away entirely with fossil fuels. Musil approaches global warming from a public health perspective, identifying the problems, solutions, and alternatives as well as examining the social, cultural, and political factors and assessing how to best change behavior and communicate this change to the masses."--Inside jacket.
