Description

The possibility of massive and irreversible ecological disaster looms ever larger over society. An increasing number of studies suggest that the threat to ecosystems all over the planet is worse than previously thought. Depletion of fisheries, deforestation, desertification, and, of course, global warming threaten massive species extinction and the lives and livelihoods of humans worldwide. This comes at a time when the roughly five billion residents of the developing world have an increasing desire to live in the state of material wealth that can be found in only a handful of wealthy countries. How can wealthy societies expect people to change the way in which they live on such a massive scale?
