Description: A maverick sustainability expert provocatively explores the difference between feel-good gestures and the hard work of going green--for businesses, individuals, or government.

Review Quotes: Dr. James E. Hansen, Director, NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies
"The sobering conclusion that I have reached, after traveling to Germany, the UK, Japan, and several U.S. states, is that even the greenest nations are not planning anything like what is needed--they say some green words, but their actions don't match the scale of the problem. "Getting Green Done" defines strategies that will actually help. It's an antidote and an alternative to "greenwash," the fraud perpetrated by governments and the fossil fuel industry that threatens our planet and our children."
