Rollin Armer
The title, 'It’s Up to Us,' could not be clearer. In the past, humanity has been decimated by plagues such as cholera, bubonic plague, smallpox, and others. These problems were overcome by people using their heads and sharing newfound information. Now, we must use the same strategy to overcome what may be our greatest challenger ever-global warming. It would seem that the best approach to future atmospheric problems is to cooperatively understand them and eliminate confusion about their nature. Beginning with a biographical sketch of a boy who struggled to overcome significant life challenges to eventually become an engineer and inventor, 'It’s Up to Us' demonstrates how one man can make a difference. You’ll learn how author Rollin Armer designed and built a fully-functional electric motorcycle as well as an electric car (with a body made entirely of wood) that he drove to work each day, decades before Elon Musk was even born! Armer’s book shows us that knowledge, innovation, and perseverance can overcome any challenge-if we have the will-and the understanding, that... 'It’s Up to Us.'
