Beschreibung
We live in a world which is in crisis. A world where greed turns the wheels of the state. A world where environmental concerns take a back seat to the vast machine of global commerce. Billionaire-eco-philanthropist Charles Langham is determined to change that. Langham implores the United Nations General Assembly to take a more active role in combating famine and the deforestation of rain forests, reversing extinction rates, and promoting alternative fuels. But this environmental plea has teeth. Langham gives the U.N. one week to comply, or he will force their hand. U.S. President Mike Read, calling Langham an eco-terrorist, has found the excuse he needs to remove Langham from the equation. Permanently. Langham will stand against the might of a nation and uncover whatever sinister forces pull its strings.
