A profoundly original vision of an attainable future ensures human prosperity while safeguarding our threatened planet. This book probes the urgent predicament of our times: how can we create a positive future for both humanity and Earth? We have entered the Anthropocene, where the actions of over seven billion people threaten to destabilize Earth's natural systems, leading to cascading consequences for societies. The authors combine the latest science with compelling storytelling and stunning photography to craft a new narrative for humanity's future. They reject the idea that economic growth and human prosperity must come at the expense of the environment, asserting that we have unprecedented opportunities to navigate a “good Anthropocene.” By embracing a deep mind-shift, humanity can reconnect with Earth, discover universal values, and assume the essential role of planetary steward. With eloquence and profound optimism, the authors envision a future of abundance within planetary boundaries—a revolutionary future that is not only necessary but also possible and sustainable for generations to come.
