Describes the various technologies for recycling waste, for energy, for 'getting more for less', linking them to ordinary people's working lives. This title outlines a planetary bargain between the world's nations that would guarantee individual freedom from poverty and keep our shared biosphere in good working order.
Three topics dominate discussions of the global environment: pollution; the consequences of the affluent running ever faster through finite resources; and the growing tensions between rich and poor as a third of humanity continues to live and die in desperate poverty.In this exceptional book Barbara Ward (co-author with Rene Dubos of the bestselling Only One Earth) refused to see these processes as inevitable. It describes new technologies for recycling waste, for energy, forgetting more or less linking them to ordinary people''s working lives. It also suggests a strategy for meeting the basic needs of the disadvantaged, and shows how the vast inequalities between countries can be reduced.This perceptive survey of policies outlines a planetary bargain between the world''s nations that would guarantee individual freedom from poverty and keep our shared biosphere in good working order.Originally published in 1988
