Greening the North : A Post-Industial Blueprint for Ecology and Equity
Editorial Reviews
Review
'A breath of fresh air, this book gives us a roadmap to sustainability in the 21st century. It should be widely read, passionately debated and thoughtfully analysed' - Jeremy Rifkin
'The North has led the world into a highly seductive but environmentally unsustainable development model. Only the North can now lead the world out of it. This book has the potential to spark off a global debate on how the future of the world can be secured' - Anil Agarwal, Centre for Science and Environment
'Everybody pays lipservice to the need to change the North profoundly for the sake of global sustainable development. This is a book which lives up to the challenge and figures out what it means' - Martin Khor, Director, Third World Network
'Greening the North is a breakthrough work. No longer is ecological thinking a reactive or resistant response to industrial development. This is the first time a comprehensive ecological framework has been applied to whole field of economic planning and social development where it can be seen as an astute, humane, and decidedly advantageous, one might say inevitable, direction for society. A primer for the 21st century in all industrialized countries, a godsend for the balance of the world's peoples who have wondered how and when the north will take responsibility for its impact upon the global commons' - Paul Hawken, Author, Ecology of Commerce
