Description

This book offers a fresh look at sustainable consumption, exploring how grassroots community action can spread ideas in society. It presents a "New Economics" approach based on alternative measures of wealth and value, examining how these are put into practice through local organic food systems, low-impact eco-housing, and complementary currencies.
