In this book the authors challenge efforts to downplay the reality and importance of global environmental problems and tendencies to undermine and misinterpret environmental data. They contrast anti-environmental rhetoric with the consensus view of the scientific community tackling head-on such issues as population growth desertification food production global warming ozone depletion acid rain and biodiversity loss. They also offer a unique glimpse into how science works and they discuss how scientists can speak out on matters of societal urgency yet retain the support of the scientific community. (EXCERPT)
