"This volume presents a summation of fifteen of the worst man-made catastrophes of modern times. The author reveals similarities between these disasters that can shed light on ways to prevent them in the future. He asserts that the only way to slow the rate of growth of devastating climate change is for governments around the world to assert control over the production of energy in ways that can lift the world out of poverty without destroying it in the process."
"Humanity has the potential to preserve the earth for future generations or cause irreparable harm. For the first time here, environmental lawyer and activist Robert Emmet Hernan provides a comprehensive, up-to-date treatment of what happened at fifteen environmental disasters in ten countries across the globe."@en
