Did you know that pollutants and estrogen from contraceptives are causing male fish in America to develop female sex organs? Or that ethanol, the liberals' favorite fuel, is destroying the world's rainforests? We hear about AIDS in Africa, but the number one killer of children in Africa is malaria, and guess who banned the pesticide that used to have malaria under control? Iain Murray's expos├® reveals how environmental blowhards actually do more to waste energy, endanger species, and kill people than those they finger while capitalism, hunting, and old-fashioned property rights have made the planet better.

      Take that, Al Gore! Murray, an ex-pat British minister, attempts to refute liberal environmentalist thinking, which he says has evolved into a modern-day religion. Among his targets are biofuels (expensive and impractical), government regulations, and tree-huggers, to name just a few. This is anything but an objective analysis, but Robertson Dean keeps his reading fairly evenhanded. When the text calls for skepticism, he injects it, but he never rants. His pleasant, engaging voice keeps one listening even if one takes issue with what he's saying. His recommendations include fewer governmental regulations and more private stewardship of resources. It's a well-organized thesis and a well-read audio. J.B.G. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
