Sinopse
"The essential message of this book is the need to reconcile the economic, social and environmental goals, as well as the importance of effective policies that allow for the access to natural resources, to international markets, technology and scientific knowledge. Our future will not be according to current patterns. The construction and application of strategies for sustainability are based fundamentally on the balance of economic, social and environmental factors, and require efficient technological, institutional and legal support in order to bring the necessary harmony and the correct environmental management. Leadership in government, in business, in society will be able to introduce the necessary changes and will lead the world to a survival movement that will create a global citizenship.
