Earth in the Balance

In this brave and provocative work, former US Vice President, Al Gore asserts that only a radical rethinking of our relationship with nature will save the earth's ecology for future generations. Gore's analysis of where we've gone wrong ranges across politics, history, science, economics, psychology, and religion. He argues that only a worldwide mobilization can save us from disaster and presents a brilliant and comprehensive plan for action that encompasses not only the earth's ecology, but also population trends, appropriate technology, and environmental education.

Al Gore served as the vice-president of the United States from 1993 until 2001. He is only one of three individuals to receive both an Academy Award and the Nobel Prize. Ed Begley, Jr. is an actor whose credits include Best in Show, Better Call Saul, and St. Elsewhere, for which he received six Emmy nominations.
