Sound Of Sirens

Der zweitausendeins Verlag hat das Transition Towns Handbuch von Rob Hopkins übersetzt.

‘Energiewende. Das Handbuch‘

Kurz: Das Buch ist super! Leider geht das deutsche Nachwort nicht sehr in die Tiefe und die Möglichkeit einer weiterführenden deutsche Linkliste hätte auch besser genutzt werden können, finde ich.

Trotzdem: Jetzt könnte es also losgehen. Ich bin gespannt. In Berlin Kreuzberg gibt es bereits die erste deutsche Transition Initiative.

Mehr Informationen über all das auf dem offiziellen deutschen Energiewende Blog. Spread the word! - und besorgt euch das Buch…

Meanwhile it’s not only the question about how to get information about living sustainably and how to actively engage - there is a lot a lot a lot of information and organizations out there. So it’s as well about finding the most accessible and comprehensible stuff…

I came across a beautiful website, a project of the Earth Island Institut, and on it I found a very valuable source of information, for free:

The Sustainable World SourceBook

The SourceBook is a concise (58 pages), attractive and user-friendly personal manual for contributing to a sustainable world. It contains essential information on the state of the planet and recommended solutions, effective actions for greening your life, and a resource directory of useful organizations, books, films and websites.

check it out! read it :-)

Natural Capitalism: Creating the Next Industrial Revolution by Paul Hawken, Amory Lovins, and L. Hunter Lovins is an important and very valuable book, that has been set free by the authors for everyone to read. Again…:
Information is the critical potential resource. It becomes a resource only when obtained and acted upon.
(’Information as a Resource’ - out of the principle summary of ‘Permaculture, A Designer’s Manual’ by Bill Mollison, Tagari Publications,1988)

It’s all out there…
