Description

by Eric Pooley. New York: Hyperion, 2010, 481 pp. According to its dust jacket, The Climate War is "an epic tale of an American civil war." Eric Pooley is said to "do for global warming what Bob Woodward did for presidents." Although such claims are overstated, the book offers a thoroughly researched and engaging account of a major political conflict: the struggle in Congress to limit carbon dioxide emissions. Pooley takes his readers into the conversations, negotiations, and public relations campaigns conducted by both environmentalists and industrialists, along with their respective allies on Capitol Hill and in the media. In so doing, he illuminates the workings of government and the fraught relations among members of Congress, advocacy groups, and constituents. The author has done his homework, and it shows.
