Greening the North: A Post-Industrial Blueprint for Ecology and Equity

Wolfgang Sachs, Reinhard Loske and Manfred Linz are fellows at The Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment and Energy. What follows are excerpts from their forthcoming book, Greening the North (Zed Books, 1998).

Essen - As the year 2000 approaches, exhortations about the future will come upon us from many quarters. Doomsayers will point to the panorama of threats facing humanity, neo-liberals will urge the final breakthrough toward a friction-free capitalism, and born-again evangelists will call for mass conversion of sinners to the right path.
