Practical Blueprint for a Sustainable Future,
By Richard Warren Field (Tarzana, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Making Peace With the Planet (Paperback)
Commoner's "peace" for the planet is a resolution of the conflict he describes as a "war between the ecosphere and the technosphere." He describes his objective quite well himself (pg 148 of the hard-cover edition): "The issue we face... is not how to facilitate environmental quality by limiting economic development..., but how to create a system of production that can grow and develop in harmony with the environment." And Commoner goes on to give specific examples of this harmonious system of production, well researched and documented. MAKING PEACE WITH THE PLANET is at its most inspiring when it offers practical ways to adapt (NOT downscale) our current lifestyle to move to more environmentally benign methods of sustaining ourselves. It is an essential addition to the library of anyone looking for practical solutions to today's environmental concerns. - Richard Warren Field, author of THE ELECTION, also available at amazon.com
