From
the Publisher
State of
the World 1999 presents evidence of the birth of an entirely new economy,
an Environmental Revolution that may be as sweeping as the Industrial Revolution
that put us on our present unsustainable course. The authors argue that,
far from being too costly to consider, the transition to an environmentally
sustainable economy represents the greatest investment opportunity in history.
In country after country, community after community, people are making
the changes needed to shift from today's fossil fuel-based, auto-centric,
throwaway economy to a solar/hydrogen-powered, bicycle/rail-centered, reuse/recycle
economy--an economy that will satisfy human needs while preserving the
Earth's ecosystems.
