Fortunately, climate activists have a 'loud voice' on their side

aomi Klein has a loud voice and fortunately it is on the side of those eager to do what they can to mitigate the causes of climate change.

A review of her latest book - “This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs the Climate” – appears on The Treehugger website.

The review begins, “Naomi Klein's latest book is about more than just science. She explores the extractivist mentality and historic decisions that have led us to where we now find ourselves, living in a totally unsustainable way.

“The core message of Naomi Klein’s newest book rings loud and clear from its opening pages: It’s time for a mass movement of regular people to declare a climate crisis. We have waited long enough for politicians, corporations, and large environmental organizations (a.k.a. “Big Green) to negotiate behind closed doors in token attempts to save our planet, but those traditional power-wielders have failed us.”
