The blueprint for an inspiring regenerative economy that avoids collapse and works for people and the planet.
Humanity is in a race with catastrophe. Is the future one of global warming, 65 million migrants fleeing failed states, soaring inequality, and grid-locked politics? Or one of empowered entrepreneurs and innovators working towards social change, leveling the playing field, and building a world that works for everyone? While the specter of collapse looms large, A Finer Future demonstrates that humanity has a chance - just - to thread the needle of sustainability and build a regenerative economy through a powerful combination of enlightened entrepreneurialism, regenerative economy, technology, and innovative policy.
The authors - world leaders in business, economics, and sustainability - gather the environmental economics evidence, outline the principles of a regenerative economy, and detail a policy roadmap to achieving it,

A Finer Future: Creating an Economy in Service to Life Reviews
-
I was enjoying this book until I found out that the author does not have a basic understanding of the environmental impact of dietary choices. How can you publish an environmental book that is against decreased meat consumption 🤔

Envisioning the great switch to a greener future - sounds in part like self-hypnosis, might be due to the American style of hype-wording. Should not distract from the seriousness of the issues and the urgency of change needed
