Red alert! : saving the planet with indigenous knowledge / Daniel R. Wildcat.
"Red Alert! seeks to debunk our civilization's long-misguided perception that humankind is at odds with nature or that it exerts control over the natural world." "Taking a hard look at the biggest problem we face today - the damaging way we live on this planet, our Mother Earth - Wildcat draws upon ancient Native American wisdom and nature-centered beliefs to advocate a modern strategy to combat global warming."--Jacket.
