In Short
Green Illusions delivers a backstage tour of solar, wind, hydrogen, biofuels, clean coal, and electric cars. It asks: is clean tech part of the solution to growth and productivism, or part of the problem? Learn about the unseen harms of solar cells. Uncover why future environmentalists will resist electric cars and hybrids. Explore the under-appreciated link between human rights and environmentalism. And, learn what future environmentalists are studying in college today.
