Jeremy L. Caradonna (Get this book)
Caradonna contends that our civilization is at a crossroads: Either we will
maintain a business-as-usual approach and face inevitable collapse or
adopt the path of sustainability.For the author, sustainability is a
broader concept than just conservation. With social justice and human
rights as its "social dimension," it covers "a broad range of domains:
urbanism, agriculture and ecological design, forestry, fisheries,
economics, trade, population, housing and architecture, transportation,
business, education, social justice, and soon." Caradonna claims that
environmental issues should not be treated separately from political or
economic issues. A provocative treatment of an important
subject.--Kirkus
