About this event
As alarming as it is compelling, Thinking Green: Ethics for a Small Planet by author-activist Karel Rogers, PhD, is not your run of the mill environmental book that offers traditional ways to save the planet. And while it promotes a green way of life, it goes deeper than the environmentalists? mantra of recycling, conservation, and self-deprivation. What Thinking Green does is open vital dialogue on personal and environmental ethics. A fascinating user?s guide for students working to solve our current global social/environmental/economic crisis, this powerful work of nonfiction examines the underlying semantic constructs of Americans. It also illustrates mankind?s journey as a species to ultimately recognize the key to mankind?s long-term viability is promotion of diversity, a commitment to live on current solar income, the habit of renewing resources, and meeting opportunities and problems with information-rich solutions.
