Rezension zu „Environmental Debt “
"For anyone interested in environmental and economic policy, this is a fascinating, provocative book. Brisk, bold, and blunt, Larkin is a devastating critic of current business practices, but she wants to inspire, not scold."--"Publishers Weekly"""Environmental Debt" expertly connects the two big systems we all depend on -- financial and ecological -- and shows that they're completely intertwined -- one cannot succeed without the other. Larkin is uniquely positioned to bridge the gap and map out a plan to make both systems stronger.--Andrew Winston, coauthor of "Green to Gold"
"Humankind's days of pillaging the earth for its resources are over. Today, a new strategy is needed if the global economy is to survive. Larkin's three guiding principles for 21st century commerce are required reading for anyone invested in a thriving business landscape as well as a healthy environment." --Kumi Naidoo, Executive Director, Greenpeace International
"Amy Larkin sounds the alarm of the coming economic crisis and calls for urgent actions to repair our relationship with nature. A committed environmentalist, she also knows firsthand how the business world gets real work done, and argues for pragmatism and common sense to undo environmental harm and re-make the future. As a business person and industrialist my entire career, I support "Environmental Debt" as part of an inclusive and well-rounded roadmap to make the world a better place."--John Hofmeister, retired President Shell Oil Company, founder/CEO Citizens for Affordable Energy, and author of "Why We Hate the Oil Companies""This book has an important message--pollution is not free. If the polluters do not pay the cost, others do in the form of increases in health costs, loss of property values, higher insurance rates and damages to crops, materials and public infrastructure. As fossil fuel consumption grows, these costs will mount. Regardless of one's political bent or world view, one cannot ignore Amy Larkin's po
