Beschreibung
The greatest challenge of the 21st century may be a failure of vision brought on by despair at living in so troubled a world. Set in the new millennium, Earthfuture restores optimism by elaborating over 20 positive -- and achievable -- futures that include ecovillages, near-zero garbage, climate-friendly cars, and the syntropy revolution, where wealth is defined by peace, a healthy environment, and the high quality of our relationships.Through its mix of utopian fiction and reportage of near-reality, Earthfuture sows the seeds of an alternative future with skill and obvious delight. Highly readable and accessible, it will appeal to a wide readership.
