Product Description
Review
"(This) is an impressive and compelling treatise on the 'sustainability gap' between political rhetoric and real action to combat such ills as health scares, decaying infrastructure, poverty, and the threat of climate change. Highly recommended for anyone concerned with environmental issues," From Here to Sustainability" is a powerful and thoughtful advocate of seeing past smoke to the heart of modern politics in a new and ever changing world of environmental and global economic concerns." -- Wisconsin Bookwatch
Product Description
For a large proportion of the electorate, national politics misses the real issues. As a result, membership of campaigning organizations has soared whilst party numbers have declined. This work distils the principles and priorities of many of the leading voluntary groups into a strong and coherent programme of political aims and actions. The problem can be measured as a "sustainability gap" - between official policies and achievements and actual democratic participation, environmental restoration and the eradication of poverty. With examples and short case studies, the book translates the gap into practical and realistic recommendations for progress.
