'Natural Capitalism' praised by Clinton

[michael perelman]

I had not read the book, but I am familiar with their work.  The moral of
Natural Capitalism is that the technologies that will solve environmental
problems are already here were just around the corner: energy-efficient
buildings, refrigerators, light bulbs and even cars.  Unfortunately business
and consumers are too ignorant to make the right choices.

They're not entirely wrong.  What makes this book to so attractive for Clinton
is that it suggests that the kind of tinkering that Clinton proposes for any
serious problem will be sufficient to make substantial progress.
