“Ignorance is strength. Education is heavy industry.”

Good book about the environmental impacts of modern industry, with neo-colonial comparisons, and some healthy does of skepticism about the absolute mandate of infinite exponential growth in the economy. 
It is a bit older, so some of the info is probably outdated, but the core message: doubt your government, and multinational companies who act like they know what is good for you better than you do.
