The authors looked into the future and sounded an alarm, for the first time showing the consequences of unchecked growth on a finite planet. Their book gained worldwide attention and became the cornerstone of a global debate on how to achieve a sustainable future. <BR>The 30-Year Update brings data on overshoot and global ecological collapse to the present moment. It provides a short course in the World3 computer model, types of growth, and the various kinds of overshoot likely to occur in the current century. While it remains to be seen whether public policy will respond effectively and in time to problems such as climate change, this book makes a compelling case for the vital need for a Sustainability Revolution. <P>ordering information: available via <BR><A href="http://www.chelseagreen.com/2004/items/limitspaper" target=blank>Chelsea Green Publishing (http://www.chealseagreen.com)</A> </FONT></P></TD></TR> <TR> <TD height=15 colSpan=2></TD></TR> <TR> <TD vAlign=top><IMG border=0 alt="" vspace=4 src="../images/punkt.gif" width=20 height=14></TD> <TD> <P> <HR> <P></P> <P><BR><FONT style="LINE-HEIGHT: 18px; FONT-SIZE: 12px" size=-1 face=verdana,helvetica,sans-serif><A name=books></A><B>The Future of the Western Hemisphere</B></FONT></P> <P><FONT style="LINE-HEIGHT: 18px; FONT-SIZE: 12px" size=-1 face=verdana,helvetica,sans-serif><STRONG>USA Club of Rome Report 2011</STRONG>&nbsp;</P> <P><IMG border=1 align=centre src="future of western hemisphere picture.jpg" width=200 height=260> <P>Co-authored by the members of the USACOR, Anitra Thorhaug, Andrew Oerke, Francesco Stipo, Norman Borlaug, and other.

In it, noted cultural historian Thomas Berry provides nothing less than a new intellectual-ethical framework for the human community by positing planetary well-being as the measure of all human activity. Drawing on the wisdom of Western philosophy, Asian thought, and Native American traditions, as well as contemporary physics and evolutionary biology, Berry offers a new perspective that recasts our understanding of science, technology, politics, religion, ecology, and education. He shows us why it is important for us to respond to the Earth's need for planetary renewal, and what we must do to break free of the "technological trance" that drives a misguided dream of progress. Only then, he suggests, can we foster mutually enhancing human-Earth relationships that can heal our traumatized global biosystem. <BR> <P>To order call 1-800-777-4726 </FONT></P></TD></TR> <TR> <TD height=15 colSpan=2></TD></TR> <TR> <TD vAlign=top><IMG border=0 alt="" vspace=4 src="../images/barry hughes.jpg" width=20 height=14></TD> <TD> <HR> <BR><FONT style="LINE-HEIGHT: 18px; FONT-SIZE: 12px" size=-1 face=verdana,helvetica,sans-serif><B>Exploring and Shaping International Futures</B> <P><IMG border=1 align=centre src="barry hughes.jpg" width=200 height=260> <P>By Barry Hughes <BR> <P><BR>ordering information: available at <A href="http://www.amazon.com/Exploring-Shaping-International-Futures-Hughes/dp/1594512329/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1238791161&amp;sr=8-1#" target=blank>Amazon </A> <P></FONT></P></TD></TR> <TR> <TD height=15 colSpan=2></TD></TR> <TR> <TD vAlign=top><IMG border=0 alt="" vspace=4 src="../images/herman daly.jpg" width=20 height=14></TD> <TD> <HR> <BR><FONT style="LINE-HEIGHT: 18px; FONT-SIZE: 12px" size=-1 face=verdana,helvetica,sans-serif><B>The Local Politics of Global Sustainability</B> <P><IMG border=1 align=centre src="herman daly.jpg" width=200 height=260> <P>By Herman Daly <BR> <P><BR>ordering information: available at <A href="http://www.amazon.com/Local-Politics-Global-Sustainability/dp/1559637447/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1238791806&amp;sr=1-11" target=blank>Amazon </A> <P></FONT></P></TD></TR> <TR> <TD height=15 colSpan=2></TD></TR> <TR> <TD vAlign=top><IMG border=0 alt="" vspace=4 src="../images/punkt.gif" width=20 height=14></TD> <TD> <HR> <BR><FONT style="LINE-HEIGHT: 18px; FONT-SIZE: 12px" size=-1 face=verdana,helvetica,sans-serif><B>Statement of the Club of Rome to the World Summit on Sustainable Development</B> <P><IMG border=1 align=centre src="img_wssd02.jpg" width=200 height=260> <P>The Club of Rome emphasised the need for changes in order to achieve a sustainable future <P>ordering information: available here for <A href="dl_wssd.pdf" target=blank>download</A> <P></FONT></P></TD></TR> <TR> <TD height=15 colSpan=2></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><BR>&nbsp;</FONT></TD> <TD vAlign=bottom width=50 noWrap align=right><!-- <a href="#start" onmouseover="MarkPlay('p_1','p_1x');" onmouseout="MarkPlay('p_1','p_1');"><img name="p_1" src="../images/pfeil.gif" width=13 height=11 alt="top of the page" border=0 hspace=15></a> --></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><!-- Ende Tabelle haupt --></TD></TR> <TR> <TD vAlign=bottom><!-- Footer --> <TABLE border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=606 align=center> <TBODY> <TR> <TD width=15 noWrap></TD> <TD noWrap><BR><FONT style="LINE-HEIGHT: 12px; FONT-SIZE: 10px" color=gray size=-2 face=arial,geneva,helvetica,sans-serif><BR>contact: Francesco Stipo, Membership Chairman <BR>E-Mail: <A href="mailto:fstipo@hotmail.com">fstipo@hotmail.com</A> </FONT><BR>&nbsp;</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></DIV><MAP name=head><AREA title="The Club of Rome" href="http://www.clubofrome.org" shape=circle alt="The Club of Rome" target=_blank coords=566,26,32><AREA title="The Club of Rome" href="http://www.clubofrome.org" shape=rect alt="The Club of Rome" target=_blank coords=21,24,124,36><AREA title="European Support Centre" href="../index.html" shape=rect alt="European Support Centre" coords=27,45,370,62><AREA shape=default></MAP></BODY></HTML>
