This is a review of the English translation of Enrique Leff’s 1995 short book Ecologia y Capital, titled Green Production, oriented toward a discussion of its political usefulness in the current era.  I finally got around to reading this book over the weekend, after suggesting it to a friend who is in fact doing this kind of work in college; here are my thoughts.

Here I will try to explain, oh so briefly, why "environmentalism" will not deal with the current crop of global "environmental problems," and why a restructuring of our society will instead be necessary.  This is just the opening statement: I am not finished with it.
