By Frances Beinecke with Bob DeansForeword by Robert Redford
"There are people of good will who hear claims on both sides of the climate change debate and aren't sure what to believe. If that feels familiar, this little book is for you. There are those who want what's best for the future generations, for our environment and for our country, yet worry that our politicians might not get this right. If you're nodding your head, this book is for you. And there are people who care deeply about our common future and just don't see climate change as a priority. If that resonates, this book is for you too, perhaps especially for you."—Robert Redford
