Your Wake Up Call - Signposts to Sustainability - By Chris Wright

103 13
As a sustainable living enthusiast, I love this book.
With Climate Change and Global Warming now well-documented and abundant in our media, there are plenty of individual sources prophesying doom and gloom and many self-help texts listing hundreds of ways to save the planet.
What strikes me most is the incredible feat that Chris Wright has pulled off in writing a concise and well-researched book that encompasses all of these aspects of the crisis at hand.
Wright describes the purpose of the book thus: First, we must acknowledge that there is a real and pressing problem, and then feel sufficiently angry or fearful about it that we want things to change.
Second, that anger/fear has to be channelled into understanding more about the nature of the problem and how we have come to be in the position we are.
third, we need to explore how our ideas change and how that is then translated into action.
Fourth, we need to have an alternative way of looking at the world, offering a positive vision of the kind of sustainable world that can be enjoyed by our descendants in perpetuity and that will provide the energy to overcome our inbuilt resistance to change.
And then we must act! So, it really is a wake-up call.
For those who are still in denial or for those who are so embroiled in the rat race that they do not have time to read more than one book on the issue, this is the one.
