Americans work longer, with less vacation time, than the citizens
of any other industrialized nation. And they consume more: recent
scientific estimates indicate that at least four additional planets
would be needed to support the earth's population if each of the
planet's 6 billion inhabitants consumed at the level of the average
American. It's a lifestyle that's hard on both people and the
environment.
In Sustainable Planet, some of the best known writers on
sustainable living--Juliet Schor, Bill McKibben, Mary Pipher,
Herman Daly, Vicki Robin, and William McDonough--write about how we
might change the way we live. Looking at issues as diverse as
consumerism, overwork, lack of spirituality, loss of community,
alienation from nature, and unsustainable development, the authors
dissect the problems plaguing our society and offer practical
advice about how to change the way we live.
This anthology comes out of the work of the Center for a New
American Dream, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping
Americans change the way they consume to improve quality of life,
protect the environment, and promote social justice.
