Friends, I am glad to announce that my new introduction/primer on sustainability is now out (routledge basics series) found here: ow.ly/AkhJR<http://ow.ly/AkhJR>, where you can request a free exam copy.
I need not tell you just how bad things are in this area, and that the prospects for something like a reversal in biodiversity loss or climate change look grim. This book is my attempt to explain the basics of sustainability from a systems perspective and lay out our situation for an undergraduate and lay audience in the most accessible language I could muster. I am happy to continue conversations about the topic, related pedagogy, or questions about the book off list if anyone is interested. Thank you, Peter ________________________________ PETER J.
