The Day the Last Monastery in Shangri-La Fell- Buddha's Not Smiling is the anatomy of a crisis. Rumtek was not in China, and its attackers were not Communist troops. It was Tibetan lamas themselves who led the siege.

<p>Not another book about climate science, "Abolish Oil Now!" is about people, justice, and what it takes to win against big dirty money. Lessons from the most successful citizens movement of the past can help us dethrone fossil fuels and win the clean energy revolution in time to save civilization.With wildfires, droughts, and storms straight out of the apocalypse ravaging the nations of the earth, it's never been more urgent than it is today to slow and stop climate change. The only force blocking action is the political and economic power of Big Oil. If serious climate solutions are enacted, fossil fuel companies stand to lose about the same amount of money that American slaveowners lost when the Civil War ended slavery in 1865.That's why climate leaders say that only one movement in the past was big enough to serve as a model to overcome opposition from fossil fuels now: the movement to abolish slavery.With inspiring stories of abolition heroes like Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and William Lloyd Garrison, "Abolish Oil Now!" offers a proven model of political success with a special focus on race, pollution, and climate justice for Black Americans and other people of color.</p>
