Summary |
"A constant economy is one in which resources are valued not wasted, where food is grown sustainably and goods are built to last. It is a system whose energy security is based on the use of renewable sources, and where strong communities are valued as a country's most effective hedge against social, economic and environmental instability. The constant economy operates at a human scale and above all it recognises nature's limits." "Zac Goldsmith shows that almost every action needed to support the environment is already being carried out somewhere in the world, by companies, communities and governments determined to blaze a trail. Where they have done the right thing, their customers and voters have rewarded them. Solutions exist, and they are brouqht together and set out in this groundbreaking book."--BOOK JACKET |
