In American Heat, Donald A. Brown criticizes the United States's response to global warming, arguing that an ethical focus on global environmental matters is the key to achieving a globally acceptable solution. In support of this argument, American Heat explores how the United States was once an environmental leader but has become a barrier to environmental protection in certain areas, including global warming.
