Takes a look at the trends that have put the global economy on a collision course with the Earth's ecosystems. This book focuses on the theme of consumption. It questions whether a less-consumptive society is possible and concludes that it is essential. It explores overconsumption - by-product of affluence; and underconsumption, linked to poverty.
