Description
Getting Down to Earth brings together scientists, managers, and national and international policy makers to identify practical strategies for implementing sustainability based on ecological economic principles. The book, joining a shared vision of a sustainable and desirable world with adequate analysis and innovative implementation, promises to be the "full package" necessary to achieve sustainability. Ecological economics, a transdisciplinary approach focusing on the problems facing humanity and the life-supporting ecosystems on which we depend, is helping to foster the dialogue necessary to pull the package together and move toward newly articulated goals.
