The necessary revolution

how individuals and organizations are working together to create a sustainable world

"Imagine a world in which the excess energy from one business would be used to heat another. Where buildings need less and less energy around the world, and where "regenerative" commercial buildings - ones that create more energy than they use - are being designed. A world in which environmentally sound products and processes would be more cost-effective than wasteful ones. Now, stop imagining - that world is already emerging. A revolution is underway in today's organisations. As the authors reveal in "The Necessary Revolution", companies around the world are boldly leading the change from dead-end, business-as-usual tactics to transformative strategies that are essential for creating a flourishing, sustainable world. There is a long way to go, but the era of denial has ended. Today's most innovative leaders are recognising that for the sake of our companies and our world, we must implement revolutionary - not just incremental - changes in the way we live and work"--Dust jacket.
