The authors believe industrial civilization is the greatest environmental 
threat so they've taken environmentalism to its logical conclusion. The 
book does get a little redundant as it examines each 'green' technology in 
turn. 

With the world population at 8.3 billion and rising I wonder about the 
motivation of the more is better crowd. I think it may go back to the 
Christian belief that god wants more souls.
