Description
Sustainability Sutra addresses the pursuit of sustainability as crucial in the transformation from an industrial to an ecological civilization, exploring in succinct detail how sustainability can be accomplished through an ecological global growth strategy that makes economic growth mean ecological improvement. It is a meditative journey of self-discovery. It is a path and record of a writer's and reader's heart way. The book includes an Introduction that considers the dynamics of building an ecological future in market economies and examines how the price system can send clear signals for sustainability. Combining ecological consumption taxation, new market rules, fiscal, monetary and investment can catalyze the trillions of dollars of productive investment in a sustainable future.

Reviews
"The Planet's fever is rising. Many major human activities rapidly destroy the livelihoods of humankind. As a result of global warming as well as air, water and soil pollution and increasing weather extremes, millions of animal and plant species are becoming extinct. Accelerated by terrorism and war, the lives of human beings are put into question. How to combat global warming? Sustainability in the ecological, social and economic spheres is crucial. To achieve sustainable economy, cultural and religious behaviour must change, to save the humanity. Peace, social justice, democracy and ecological economy are the key points. The book by Roy Morrison, Sustainability Sutra elaborates on solutions in economy and society. Sustainable economy comes with zero emission technologies and carbon sinking agriculture. The target must be global cooling, instead of accepting global warming. This stimulates an end of live-endangering toxic emissions from fossil fuels, nuclear energy and chemistry, from toxic pesticide agriculture on the one hand. On the other hand, it enables millions of new jobs and fighting against poverty and hunger, which are the source of conflicts and terrorism. Sustainability Sutra is a great contribution to a discussion on how to stop and reduce the planet's fever." Hans-Josef Fell , Member of the German parliament (1998-2013) President of the Energy Watch Group Author of Global Cooling
