Reviews of Cool Companies
"It would seem that Dr. Joseph Romm is a 21st century alchemist, but here is his book full of examples of companies-micro-scale to mega-large-that are improving the environment while simultaneously increasing their profits. Their experiences are an invaluable guide to a more hopeful future and a refutation of the claims by too many in industry that they can't afford to be good citizens by cleaning up their polluting effluents."
-Walter Cronkite
"Joe Romm draws on his rich experience as the senior U.S. DOE efficiency manager to show how energy efficiency investments improve productivity, yield high return on investment, and mitigate climate change. Industry, universities, medical centers, and commercial building owners can all take advantage of the proven ideas in this book."
-Thomas R. Casten, President and CEO, Trigen Energy Corporation, and author of Turning Off the Heat
"Increasing energy efficiency is a critical component of achieving a sustainable economy, and Cool Companies is a seminal contribution to our understanding of how this may be done in an economically and environmentally preferable manner."
-Brad Allenby, Environment, Health & Safety Vice President, AT&T
"A fabulous book, a goldmine of successful projects with the environment as the major driver. Joseph Romm is at last a writer who can rouse the market economists to embrace global warming issues."
-Vivian Loftness, AIA, Professor and Head of the School of Architecture, Carnegie Mellon University
"To read Cool Companies is to take an enchanting walk through the encyclopedic mind of Joe Romm and to share firsthand the fruits of his years of up-close participation in a revolution in the making. The revolution is, of course, the next industrial revolution, which will undoubtedly accelerate toward a better tomorrow for Earth because of Joe's landmark work."
-Ray Anderson, Chairman and CEO of Interface, Inc.
