Hopeful and provocative, this accountconsiders the principle social and ecological threats facing Australia and outlines the ways in which these crises need to be confronted and addressed. Taking a radical approach to climate change prevention, this bold manifesto claims that Australia’s current focus on over-consumption and “greener lifestyles” are ineffective. Rather, this opinionated record argues that society must instead make more dramatic changes and stop over-production. Thought-provoking and dynamic, this exploration is a must-read for people interested in climate change.
