Cheshire County Democrats Book Club
Hello Everyone, The book group met this week for an excellent discussion of The Omnivore's Dilemma, by Michael Pollan. If you haven't read this book yet, we highly recommend it. It will really make you think about what you eat and how it got to your table. For November, we will be reading Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution -- and How It Can Renew America, by Thomas Friedman. This book is currently number one on the New York Times Nonfiction Best Sellers list, so order your copy from the library right away. It's also available at Toadstool or from Amazon. We will meet on Wednesday, November 19, 6:30 PM at the Food Court in Colony Mill Marketplace. I hope you can join us. Linda Cates Amazon.com Review Book Description
Thomas L. Friedman’s phenomenal number-one bestseller The World Is Flat has helped millions of readers to see the world in a new way. In his brilliant, essential new book, Friedman takes a fresh and provocative look at two of the biggest challenges we face today: America’s surprising loss of focus and national purpose since 9/11; and the global environmental crisis, which is affecting everything from food to fuel to forests. In this groundbreaking account of where we stand now, he shows us how the solutions to these two big problems are linked--how we can restore the world and revive America at the same time.Friedman explains how global warming, rapidly growing populations, and the astonishing expansion of the world’s middle class through globalization have produced a planet that is “hot, flat, and crowded.” Already the earth is being affected in ways that threaten to make it dangerously unstable. In just a few years, it will be too late to fix things--unless the United States steps up now and takes the lead in a worldwide effort to replace our wasteful, inefficient energy practices with a strategy for clean energy, energy efficiency, and conservation that Friedman calls Code Green.This is a great challenge, Friedman explains, but also a great opportunity, and one that America cannot afford to miss. Not only is American leadership the key to the healing of the earth; it is also our best strategy for the renewal of America.In vivid, entertaining chapters, Friedman makes it clear that the green revolution we need is like no revolution the world has seen. It will be the biggest innovation project in American history; it will be hard, not easy; and it will change everything from what you put into your car to what you see on your electric bill. But the payoff for America will be more than just cleaner air. It will inspire Americans to something we haven’t seen in a long time--nation-building in America--by summoning the intelligence, creativity, boldness, and concern for the common good that are our nation’s greatest natural resources.Hot, Flat, and Crowded is classic Thomas L. Friedman: fearless, incisive, forward-looking, and rich in surprising common sense about the challenge--and the promise--of the future.

Any desiring to assist please let Peter know at pwhocking@aol.com
