In The Climate War, Eric Pooley, deputy editor of Bloomberg Businessweek, takes us behind the scenes and into the minds of the most important players in the struggle to cap global warming pollution—an American civil war in which trillions of dollars and the fate of the planet are at stake. To write this book, Pooley, the former managing editor of Fortune and chief political correspondent for Time, spent three years embedded with an extraordinary cast of characters on all sides of the fight. The result is an epic narrative, a searing exposé, and an essential read for anyone who wants to understand the most important argument in America.

Eric Pooley has written about climate politics for Time, Slate, Bloomberg News and other publications and has appeared on Nightline, Charlie Rose, The CBS Evening News, NBC Nightly News, Larry King Live, Anderson Cooper 360, All Things Considered, and many other programs.
