We can no longer pretend that we can continue the "life as usual" patterns of the past 60 years, but humanity has made it through thousands of other climate catastrophes, and can make it through this one, too.
Begun back in the '90s as a handbook for students who wanted to create sustainable communities, this book went into a second form as a resource for anyone who feels the need to understand why we're going through what we've been going through over the past 50 years, and believes that maybe something else is possible.
Today, in the mid-2020s, the looming climate crises have pushed us to the point where the ideas in this book are the tools we need to be able to live in harmony with each other and the planet, in a way that can be sustained for generations to come.
