A powerful book. As you say he says all the right things with clarity and precision, and he backs it up with example and data that is undeniable. But while the princes of darkness, (Wall street Journal, energy companies, et al) hold the power these shouts of warning are but whispers in the wind. Multi-nationals do not consider the Commons to be common at all, rather they see them as something to be privatised and/or exploited; and that includes, the oceans, the atmosphere, water, and everything else that they can lay claim to.
