Book Description
With "50 Simple Steps to Kick America's Oil Habit", the goal of the Green Patriot Working Group is to initiate the next oil boycott--when America tells the world that it doesn't need oil anymore from unfriendly, hostile or unstable governments because its citizens have been empowered to do their share to kick our extreme addiction to petroleum. Following in the footsteps of the very successful "50 Simple Steps to Save the Earth from Global Warming", the Green Patriot Working Group's newest consumer handbook provides easy and practical steps anybody can take to reduce their personal dependency on petrochemicals. From the cosmetics and household cleaning products we purchase to the foods we eat, our choice of transportation, how we heat our homes and even the clothing we wear, Americans can make choices that will make a tremendous difference for our future national security. "50 Simple Steps" also looks at the many side benefits of abandoning petroleum products including improved public health (from reduced carcinogens, toxins and pollution), a healthier environment (due to reduced greenhouse gases and global warming) and a healthier economy (due to keeping billions of U.S. dollars in our own country). "50 Simple Steps" challenges and inspires its readers to be leaders-each person, each Green Patriot-and to do their fair share for America. "50 Simple Steps" makes it easy.

Lives Per Gallon
Author: Terry Tamminen
Publisher: Island Press
ISBN: 1597261017
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
"America is addicted to oil. The diagnosis is clear, but what's the true price of dependence? Who's paying with their lives? Who's profiting? And, most importantly, what's the cure?" "Terry Tamminen, Special Advisor to California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, provides real answers in this indictment of the oil economy and the corporate titans that drive it. With all eyes focused on soaring prices at the pump, Tamminen reveals oil's more insidious costs: tens of billions spent annually to secure our global supply; crops ruined by petroleum pollution; cancer, asthma, and birth defects caused by car exhaust; and the list goes on. Simply living in a smog-filled city can be as dangerous as smoking half a pack of cigarettes a day." "Like big tobacco, Tamminen argues, the oil and auto industries have deceived us to line their own pockets. With tales of corporations knowingly exposing citizens to poisonous chemicals, conspiring to derail public transportation, and purposely disablng their own pollution controls, he builds a case against powerful industries." "And he shows how demanding accountability, as the public did through successful lawsuits against cigarette companies, could help pave the road to sustainable energy. Instead of subsidizing oil companies and auto makers through huge tax breaks, Tamminen proposes collecting damages and investing in clean technologies."--BOOK JACKET.
