Is a new economic miracle, a different capitalism and a different energy policy possible in post-industrial times? What can reverse the decline in the global economy, given that a return to a resource-based model of economic development is no longer acceptable? Climate change, the reduction of arable land, the threat of water shortages, the depletion of natural sources show us signs of self-destruction of the former economic order. It's time to look for sustainable alternatives! The book of the "green" German politician and publicist Ralf Fuchs is the answer to this call. The author examines in detail the range of ways out of this situation. The objects of his research are eco-cities and eco-building of the very near future, new tools for agriculture and a new type of industry, promising economic mechanisms. Despite the complexity of the problem, the book is written in an accessible, entertaining language with unexpected twists and literary allusions.
