The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
In State of the World 2010: Transforming Cultures (Worldwatch Institute/Norton), sixty renowned researchers and practitioners describe how we can harness the world's leading institutions - education, the media, business, governments, traditions, and social movements - to reorient cultures toward sustainability. Local activists (and authors) Cecile Andrews and John de Graaf speak about their contributions to the volume, and about their work on the Gross National Happiness Project, an indicator of a country's prosperity currently in use in Bhutan. Hoping to help Seattle join Victoria, B.C. as a GNHC, they've met with the city council, and will present their proposal to those attending today. "Worldwatch has taken on an ambitious agenda in this volume. No generation in history has achieved a cultural transformation as sweeping as the one called for here ... it is hard not to be impressed with the book's boldness." - Muhammad Yunnus, from the introduction.
