Book Description
Seager confronts the gamut of institutional characters--from militaries, governments and corporations, to fringe and mainstream environmental groups--with a leveling feminist gaze. She finds that conventional sops to the crisis often further blame and marginalize women, the poor, and the disenfranchized--while protecting the major despoilers. Banning disposable diapers (2% of overall garbage) is not the answer, she says, let's talk about global demilitarization for starters. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
