Environmental Overkill
Environmental Overkill offer a straightforward analysis that helps readers understand the scientific and political realities of environmental issues and make their own informed decisions about global warming, pollution, endangered species, and other environmental issues.
A favorite liberal ploy across the spectrum is to pretend that only liberals care about various problems. Those who are against their usually soft-headed and invariably costly problem prescriptions are then labeled as for the problem. Sometimes there was not really even a problem to begin with. Remember the Alar apple scare propigated by 60 Minutes?
Environmental Overkill destroys radical environmental arguments with common sense. A brilliant scientist and former governor of Washington, the late Dixy Lee Ray exposed the radical enviros for what they are: a bitter ice cream sundae of money-grubbing scam artists with a good bit of totalitarian earth-mother nuts sprinkled on top.
At the same time she gives examples of how property rights and the free-market save wildlife and wilderness. It makes all the more sense if you know about the hellish stewardship of land and property provided by governmental agencies (Russia, China, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Land Management). I couldn't put this book down.
