This IslandersAll flagship book is an islandy-compact and lush, that is-compilation of the ideas of many concerned scholars, writers, scientists, futurists, educators, activists, economists, and philosophers who have spent significant time and effort researching, thinking, and writing about what a desirable and sustainable future might look like for humanity-and certainly for all the other living beings on this Good Earth-and what we need to do to get there. At its core, it makes the case for the worldview, values, and policies proposed by thought leaders from the transdisciplinary field of Ecological Economics (ECOnomics), which boldly takes on very complex and interrelated issues concerning ethics, energy, economics, and the environment. If its central message had to be condensed into a simple tagline-ECOnomics in a (coco)nutshell, if you will-it would be this: ON A FULL PLANET, WE ARE ALL ISLANDERS. "There was a time, not long ago When folks were few, and change was slow The Earth a-filled, with Nature's gifts No reason then, for pause and thrift But now, it's true, the world is full And money games, have made us dull We burn too much, we move too fast We grow, we spread, this cannot last The Islander, whose bounds are real Would surely say, look here's the deal Find the balance, slow the pace Lose the greed, or doom you face"
