Description: Fatal Consumption : Rethinking Sustainable Development, Hardcover by Woollard, Robert (EDT); Ostry, Aleck S. (EDT), ISBN 0774807865, ISBN-13 9780774807869, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Based on their four-year interdisciplinary study of British Columbia's Lower Fraser Basin, scholars from the various fields that contribute to environmental science ask why people claim to value sustainability while acting in an unsustainable fashion, and how to reduce consumption drastically and move toward a sustainable social system when society is specifically based on consumption. They analyze policy and propose tools for those charged with making decisions. The analysis, though specific in focus, should be applicable to most North American urban areas, and might interest urban planners, policy makers, and people interested in the link between health and a sustainable society.
