Description

I read it in a day. Loved this book. Excellent writer and, as he says in interview with Booklist, sustainability is The Story of Our Time. Even though we've ditched the Bush era insanity in the government re environment, we really haven't made the kind of progress we need to - the kind of common sense that most of the examples in this book show. I wish the author had gone more into the examples of Sweden's Natural Step, but this is a book I'd like to write. For video examples and more info about Green Plans, see Huey Johnson's nonprofit [...]. You can also read his book. Green Plans, Revised Ed: Blueprint for a Sustainable Earth (Our Sustainable Future) I made the videos on his web site. Huey won the top prize for environmentalism from the UN in 2001 for his Green Plans movement building and evangelizing. We need a hundred more books like Eco Barons (which is not the best title this book could have had but oh well....it's a good book!)
