Review

"[Friedman's] basic policy guidelines, and most of his specific suggestions...are sound. He really does get globalization, in a way only ceaseless travelers can...."

Publisher's note

In a best-selling book, the author proposes an ambitious national strategy to address key issues in climate change and energy shortages, identifying the factors that have contributed to current circumstances while outlining an American-led revolution of clean-technology solutions.

Annotation

Columnist Thomas L. Friedman explains why, in a globalized world, crises in energy and the climate must be priorities. Friedman argues further that a globalized world makes it possible as never before to address these issues in a meaningful way, and with positive and significant results. The United States is uniquely positioned to take a lead in this initiative, says Friedman: by working to make the world safer and cleaner, we make America more secure. As always, Friedman is insightful both in diagnosing the problem and in offering solutions, as he describes specific technologies that would be central to a national policy of "geo-greenism." Most importantly, he makes no bones about the fact that the commitment to change must be immediate, and significant. Selected by the New York Times Book Review as a Notable Book of 2008.
