Description

Explore the complex relationship between global resource consumption and economic development in Tomorrow's World: Britain's share in a sustainable future. Published by Routledge and researched by Friends of the Earth, this book examines the stark reality of global inequality, where 20 per cent of the Earth's population consumes over 80 per cent of available resources. While many Westerners enjoy unprecedented material comfort, 1.3 billion people live on less than USUSD1 per day. As a former colonial power and the first industrial nation, Britain holds a notable record of overconsumption. This work argues that for developing countries to escape poverty and to prevent further global instability, Britain must make deep cuts in its resource consumption. This book provides a necessary look at how national consumption patterns impact the global struggle for sustainability and economic fairness.
