Book Description

Publication Date: 18 July 2002 | ISBN-10: 1903998077 | ISBN-13: 978-1903998076
We live in a consumer society, and over-consumption is the driving force of environmental degradation. This stark reality led Pooran Desai and Sue Riddlestone to found BioRegional Development Group. In this Briefing they show how we can meet more of our needs for wood products, paper, textiles, food and housing from local renewable and waste resources. They outline the theoretical framework of bioregional development and the award winning practical solutions that BioRegional have developed with industry partners. They quantify how we can significantly reduce CO2 emissions and recycle waste, and so greatly reduce our ecological footprint.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sustainable ways of living - very informative book 6 Sep 2010
By ASax
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I am surprised that there are not many other books such as this. This book shows the initiatives that are currently being taken in the UK to creates more sustainable and environmental ways of living. The book provides existing case studies of initiatives such as paper recycling centres within London and many others which are providing current solutions. For anyone who is interested in living a more sustainable lifestyle, this book is a very informative reference and a must read.
