Title: Painting the White House green
Description: "Painting the White House Green collects personal essays by eight Senior Staff Economists for Environmental and Natural Resource Policy who worked within the Council of Economic Advisers from 1992 to 2002. These authors confirm the council's "severe" view of many environmental initiatives, a perspective that led President Clinton to label his economic advisers "lemon suckers." At the same time, the authors demonstrate that the emphasis on efficiency was to provide more effective environmental protection at lower cost. Thinking "green" meant thinking consistently about both economics and the environment."--BOOK JACKET.
