Summary

In his new book 'Ecocivilization', Jeremy Lent offers a bracing vision for how humanity can escape the destructive imperatives of capitalism and create ecologically centered societies that work for everyone. The book draws on dozens of real-world projects and social movements to describe what a stable, humane world would look like and what strategies can get us there. Chapters focus on significant socio-economic changes that must occur in business organization, agriculture, technology, finance, infrastructure, law, global governance, among other areas.
