MORE GOOD NEWS

The book:

　

In this revised and updated edition of their bestselling "Good News for a Change," David Suzuki and Holly Dressel provide the latest inspiring stories about sustainable solutions to our planet's problems, including the newly defined problem of ocean acidification. Suzuki and Dressel see great promise in the increased support for green economies since the 2008 global financial collapse, and, most promising of all, they see more people than ever before working to heal the biosphere and live within the limits of nature's bounty.

"The stories of people's struggles around the world glow on these pages." MAUDE BARLOW, cofounder of the Blue Planet Project

"The authors have uncovered hundreds of solutions that can help all of us to imagine and achieve a new and happier future." THE NEW TIMES
