The banning of dozens of the world's most toxic chemicals. Remarkable strides in cleaning up the air we breathe and the water we drink.
The race to be the greenest city in the world. The exponential growth of renewable energy powered by wind, water, and sun. The salvation of the ozone layer, vital to life on Earth. Thousands of new parks, protecting billions of hectares of land and water. Endangered species-from bald eagles to gray whales-pulled back from the precipice of extinction. The Optimistic Environmentalist chronicles these remarkable success stories. In the past fifty years, a remarkable number of environmental problems have been solved, while substantial progress is ongoing on others. But the surprisingly good news is that we have solutions to these problems. Yes, the world faces substantial environmental challenges-climate change, pollution, and extinction.
A hopeful, inspiring, and honest take on the environment.
