Caribou and Conoco

Rethinking Environmental Politics in Alaska's ANWR and Beyond

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

By examining the proposed drilling in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) in Alaska,Caribou and Conoco explores the constant tension between environmental policy and energy policy and shatters the myth that important environmental-energy debates in the United States have been driven by forces too complex for the average American to understand. This book makes sense of the underlying political and societal forces driving the longstanding debate on whether to drill for energy sources in ANWR.
