It is clear, compelling, and shocking to read the efforts and investments we have made in a dying technology that is, in fact, killing us. Terry Tamminen, current President\/CEO of AltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles, is a wonderful writer, using stories and data to help us see the futility of further investment in #fossilfuels. What&#8217;s even more revealing to me is that this book was written about 15 years ago.
