  Synopsis Details Reviews  
Is rural Wales a green museum in which conservationists act as curators? Would a Welsh parliament allow developers to exploit Wales' mineral wealth at any cost? Why does burning coal in Derbyshire mean more rhododendrons in Snowdonia? Is urban Wales the environment of the majority? Why are most Welsh people apathetic about green issues? These questions, and many others, are tackled in this collection of essays by some of Wales' leading writers and campaigners, including Lord Elis Thomas, Alwyn Jones, Robert Minhinnick, John Barnie and Neil Caldwell. Written for the lay-person, as well as the student or researcher, the book describes present environmental problems and suggests solutions.
