About this audiobook

The environment, and the movement that grew up to protect it, is under attack-concerted and purposeful. Yet the need for solutions to pressing environmental problems grows more urgent each day. Teresa Heinz Kerry and Senator John Kerry traveled across the country in a national campaign to see firsthand how these issues unite people across party and ideological lines. From the San Juan Basin to the Gulf of Mexico to the South Bronx, from mothers on Cape Cod to Colorado ranchers, they found a vibrant coalition of people and communities deploying ingenuity, technology, and sheer will power to save the world they know and love.

Now, in this passionate and personal book, Senator John Kerry and Teresa Heinz Kerry shine the spotlight on an inspiring cross-section of these new environmental pioneers. This Moment on Earth combines intensive research with keenly observed personal experiences to present a portrait of Americans devoted to the natural diversity and spectacular uniqueness of our country.

    This is a biased look at our environment. It's looking at one dot on a paper with 10000 dots on it. Mostly bulls***

    This book is a good introduction to a host of problems stemming from so many people on earth now and too little knowledge of how to co-exist without degrading resourses and health for all.The book itself makes sense. Unfortunately the authors never followed through on backing their opinions after writing the book. Perhaps they did not really believe what they wrote. I would have rated the book higher if the authos had acted as they wrote.

    A wake-up call to the problems of the environment, but also an uplifting depiction of the people who are working at the grass roots level to solve the problems.
