الحضارة البيئية .. بناء عالم يعمل لصالح الجميع

One of the greatest thinkers of our time (The Guardian) offers a new way of life, inspired by the design of nature rather than that of capitalism, for fans of Guns, Germs and Steel and The Donut Economy. It has often been said that imagining the end of the world is easier than imagining the end of capitalism, yet this is what the historical moment urgently demands. Climate change has reached emergency status, inequality continues to worsen, and for many, the future has never been bleaker. Incremental policy improvements are no longer enough. We need a radical transformation of our current civilization to survive. In his book Ecological Civilization, prominent thinker Jeremy Lint reimagines the foundations of our civilization and calls for a new global order of life, based on life-enhancing principles, inspired by the design of nature itself. This work provides a solid framework that combines Lint's expertise with those of field workers who are already applying the basic principles of ecological civilization: justice, reciprocity, diversity, and coexistence. From the global economy to inclusive housing and income, from infrastructure to agriculture, every major aspect of our society can be redesigned to function as a whole, creating the conditions for all people to thrive. Ecocivilization shows how this future on a renewed Earth is not only desirable, but entirely achievable.
