Description
The present global growth economy is drawing us deeper and deeper into a major social, ecological and economic crisis. This book aims to show how we can create a healthy, sustainable and humane alternative where, rather than material consumption, lasting wealth and happinesss are the primary goals. Using case studies and ideas from around the world, this work should interest those who are concerned about our impact on each other and the planet, and who want to make responsible choices for a greener, cleaner world.
