Here is the rare book that anticipates with commonsense intelligence the most practical problems of how we will inhabit our landscape in the 21st century. The author recognizes the macro trends of downscaling and re-localization that will determine how we live in a coming period of industrial de-growth, changing climate, and social crisis. The writing is straightforward, clear, and muscular, conveying an urgent and purposeful spirit of facing the facts and getting things done. James Howard Kunstler, Author of The Geography of Nowhere, The Long Emergency, and World Made by Hand In this ground-breaking book, Korkut Onaran tackles the inconvenient truth that humans must adapt to the accelerating impacts of climate change: where we'll live, how we'll live - and how we can successfully live together. This is an indispensable starting point for charting a resilient future. Rick Cole, Executive Director of The Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU)
