Book Synopsis Return to Common Sense by : William Edward Skokos
Download or read book Return to Common Sense written by William Edward Skokos and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an assault on conservative based values by the liberal left; this situation has only been exacerbated by moderate Republicans who have in some cases refused to take a stand. Even the Republican leadership has been timid in engaging the left and holding firm to their moral high ground. Common Sense Conservatism is the antidote for all that troubles our great nation. We must allow Common Sense to dictate our actions if we ever hope to save our way of life from those who wish to destroy America and transform it into a second rate power. What is it in a person's life that sets forth a conservative outlook? Here William Edward Skokos allows us a peak into his experiences for the key to that conservatism. He takes on the policies of both the left and the right as he provides a provocative and well informed explanation of the origins of these policies and what needs to be done in order to turn the tide and revitalize America. His belief and faith in the American people is the key element which he believes will ensure the continuation of the American dream.
Book Synopsis How to Avoid a Climate Disaster by : Bill Gates
Download or read book How to Avoid a Climate Disaster written by Bill Gates and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • In this urgent, authoritative book, Bill Gates sets out a wide-ranging, practical—and accessible—plan for how the world can get to zero greenhouse gas emissions in time to avoid a climate catastrophe. Bill Gates has spent a decade investigating the causes and effects of climate change. With the help of experts in the fields of physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, political science, and finance, he has focused on what must be done in order to stop the planet's slide to certain environmental disaster. In this book, he not only explains why we need to work toward net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases, but also details what we need to do to achieve this profoundly important goal. He gives us a clear-eyed description of the challenges we face. Drawing on his understanding of innovation and what it takes to get new ideas into the market, he describes the areas in which technology is already helping to reduce emissions, where and how the current technology can be made to function more effectively, where breakthrough technologies are needed, and who is working on these essential innovations. Finally, he lays out a concrete, practical plan for achieving the goal of zero emissions—suggesting not only policies that governments should adopt, but what we as individuals can do to keep our government, our employers, and ourselves accountable in this crucial enterprise. As Bill Gates makes clear, achieving zero emissions will not be simple or easy to do, but if we follow the plan he sets out here, it is a goal firmly within our reach.

Book Synopsis Manifesto of Common Sense by : Bruce C. Rosetto
Download or read book Manifesto of Common Sense written by Bruce C. Rosetto and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans are being led down this primrose path unknowingly as politicians disguise, and even hide, the consequences of the policies they are pushing on America. The title of this book is a play on the "Manifesto of the Communist Party" written in 1848 by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engel in London. The reason I chose this title is because I believe America is becoming a socialist society. Signs of communist tendencies are appearing in more and more of our politicians. Americans may ultimately choose to adopt policies and philosophies that are consistent with the beliefs of Marx and Engel, but they should do so knowingly and with an educated intent of adopting this type of government.

The Research Anthology on Clean Energy Management and Solutions provides in-depth research that explores strategies and techniques used in the energy production field to optimize energy efficiency in order to maintain clean and safe use while delivering ample energy coverage. The anthology also seeks solutions to energy that have not yet been optimized or are still produced in a way that is harmful to the environment. Covering topics such as hydrogen fuel cells, renewable energy, solar power, solar systems, cost savings, and climate protection, this text is essential for electrical engineers, nuclear engineers, environmentalists, managers, policymakers, government officials, professionals in the energy industry, researchers, academicians, and students looking for the latest research on clean energy management.
Book Synopsis The Death of Common Sense by : Philip K. Howard
Download or read book The Death of Common Sense written by Philip K. Howard and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER “We need a new idea of how to govern. The current system is broken. Law is supposed to be a framework for humans to make choices, not the replacement for free choice.” So notes Philip K. Howard in the new Afterword to his explosive manifesto The Death of Common Sense. Here Howard offers nothing less than a fresh, lucid, practical operating system for modern democracy. America is drowning—in law, lawsuits, and nearly endless red tape. Before acting or making a decision, we often abandon our best instincts. We pause, we worry, we equivocate, and then we divert our energy into trying to protect ourselves. Filled with one too many examples of bureaucratic overreach, The Death of Common Sense demonstrates how we—and our country—can at last get back on track.

Book Synopsis “Clean” Energy Exploitations by : Ronald Stein
Download or read book “Clean” Energy Exploitations written by Ronald Stein and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-04 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global focus on reducing emissions must be ethical instead of supporting environmental degradation. The book Clean Energy Exploitations – Helping citizens understand the environmental and humanity abuses that support ‘clean’ energy” is a Nominee for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize competition in the General Nonfiction category. Pulitzer Prize Winners and Finalists will be announced in April 2022. They also emphasize the global nature of the problem, noting that the United States of America could cease to exist and we'd see environmental problems get worse. In this book, they answer questions such as: Would the Green New Deal cut worldwide emissions? What toll is energy racism and inequality taking on the world? How effective are renewable forms of energy in meeting our needs? Whose duty is it to reduce harmful pollution? Green advocates often say they support sustainable and ethical coffee, sneakers, handbags, and diamonds-and they claim they won't tolerate unsafe conditions. But when it comes to green energy and battery energy storage systems for electrical grids and electric vehicles, the authors say it is a different story.

Download or read book Greenwash written by Guy Pearse and published by Black Inc.. This book was released on 2012-09-26 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Going green is the new black for big business. But how real is the climate-friendly revolution that's being advertised? Toyota reckons Mother Nature drives a Prius, Ford wants us to 'Join the Green Revolution', and McDonald's has painted its famous golden arches green. Facebook has even 'friended' Greenpeace. But are big brands and the celebrities endorsing them really as green as they claim? In Greenwash, in the tradition of Fast Food Nation and No Logo, Guy Pearse looks behind the corporate façade - and what he finds will startle you. Nothing is sacred and no one is safe from scrutiny in this exposé of carbon scams: not the Prius or the Nissan LEAF, not the World Wildlife Fund or Earth Hour, not Oprah or Leonardo DiCaprio. For consumers trying to shop the planet green, Greenwash is a wake-up call. It's also an entertaining and practical book that helps consumers to pick the truly green businesses from the greenwashers and to demand a higher environmental standard from all. 'Guy Pearse travels the sewers of misinformation to show us exactly how, from banks to airlines, there's a growth industry in green horseshit. But, after hosing himself off, Pearse also presents us with a far more thoughtful analysis than I've read in other exposés of greenwashing.' --Raj Patel, author of Stuffed and Starved and the New York Times bestseller The Value of Nothing 'Before I read Greenwash I thought I could no longer be shocked by the skulduggery of the marketers. How wrong I was. Read Greenwash to be reminded why advertising is called the dark art and how marketing has become the most destructive force on the planet.' --Clive Hamilton, author of Affluenza and Requiem for a Species '[Greenwash] contains some brilliant exposés of capital scamming the unwary consumer, giving them a green hoodwink while continuing opposite practices elsewhere.' --Adelaide Review 'Guy Pearse's welcome book reveals the difficulty of judging the benefits and real environmental costs of the way we live.' --David Suzuki 'If you want to know how to pick the true greenies from the fakers, this book is for you.' --Green Lifestyle
