Tomorrow's World by Duncan McLaren, Simon Bullock, Nusrat Yousuf Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Tomorrow's World uses the key concept of environmental space to resolve many of the key issues facing us in the future and applies the lessons specifically to the UK. Using extensive figures and graphics, the authors present sustainable levels of consumption for Britain, and a practical vision of how to achieve them. Publisher Description 20 per cent of the Earth's population currently consumes over 80 per cent of available resources. Whilst most Westerners lead lives of unprecedented material comfort fuelled by spiralling consumption patterns, 1.3 billion people exist on less than US$1 per day. As the first industrial nation and a former colonial power, Britain's record of overconsumption is one of the most notable. Researched and written by Friends of the Earth, Tomorrow's World argues that Britain must make deep cuts in resource consumption in order to allow developing countries to escape from poverty, and to prevent furtheri? breaches of environmental limits. It sets targets for reduced consumption levels, and shows how these can be met. In doing so, it demonstrates that significant goals in our society - health, employment, equality and a secure environment - are not determined by consumption, and that lower consumption levels can improve our quality of life.
