A fact-filled, concise, hard-hitting, highly rational, and much needed analysis of the crises we face, and of the need to both reduce and redistribute global material consumption - John Perkins, bestselling author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man andThe Secret History of the American Empire. 'Kempf's elegant thesis puts a stake in the heart of neoliberalism, explains ecology like a poet, and unravels the self-serving economic theories of both the left and the right. Kempf is a modern-day Lorax with a political conscience. He worries about the trees and the economy and democracy - in short, he puts the pieces of the puzzle together.' John Passacantando, Executive Director of Greenpeace USA.
