The core dilemma of our time is: How can we all live well, now and in the future, without compromising the ability of the planet to enable us all to live well? This book identifies the connected environmental and social problems we now face; their causes, their connections and the potential resolutions. This book is for everyone who cares about such challenges, and wants to know more about them.
