If you have not already read Tom Wessels’ 2006 book [The myth of progress - Towards a sustainable Future], I highly recommend it to you. It makes some core arguments in support of our efforts to support a carbon neutral economy as a response to global warming and biosphere degradation.

Happy New Year,

Book Description

In this compelling and cogently argued book, Tom Wessels demonstrates how our current path toward progress, based on continual economic expansion and inefficient use of resources, runs absolutely contrary to three foundational scientific laws that govern all complex natural systems. It is a myth, he contends, that progress depends on a growing economy.
