Description

Do you have the feeling that there might be something fundamentally wrong with the sustainability debate of today?
Do you have the feeling that we might be tangled up in the discussion and management of sustainability details without comprehending the sustainability of the whole?
Do you have the feeling that we, despite all our orating about sustainability, seem to be moving in the opposite direction?

This is not a book about pollution and climate change. It is not a book about sustainable metropolises, high tech power solutions of the future or urban vertical gardens. It is not a book about miracles.

It is a book about the very basics of sustainability, about the differences and similarities between cities and villages, about eco-utopian thoughts throughout the ages, about an eco-utopian vision founded on the conclusions of the earlier chapters, and, about the sustainability prospects of villages, cities and our civilization.

books.

Sweden's friendliest and environmental friendliest bookshop with the lowest priced textbooks.

This is our ambition, and we do what it takes to get there. We are here to help students to save and earn money on their textbooks while we at the same time save the environment. We were started in 2005 by two students and have since strived to constantly make it easier to buy and sell used textbooks for as many as possible.
