Green Plans: Blueprint for a Sustainable Earth, 3rd ed. (2008), by Huey D. Johnson, updated and with a new Afterword by the author; Univ. of Nebraska Press series "Our Sustainable Future" "When you've reached the edge of an abyss, the only move you can make is to turn around and step forward." "Green Plans" are comprehensive environmental strategies that represent the most effective tool yet developed to protect and sustain the global environment. Huey D. Johnson is convinced that green plans provide the world with a historic opportunity to move from industrial environmental deterioration to postindustrial sustainability while offering a model of creative collaboration between government and business for future generations. In this book, Johnson provides the first detailed and understandable examination of not only the theory of green plans but also their implementation and performance as exemplified in nations such as the Netherlands, Canada, and New Zealand. Plans currently under consideration in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Austria, the United Kingdom, Germany, Singapore, and the European Community are also discussed. Johnson's comprehensive treatment of green plans also shows how governments can win the cooperation of various social and economic groups in checking environmental degradation. |
